Idea: use Copper as extension module to edit panel colors for Null and Info #5

It should be possible to use Copper as an extension module to edit the panel colors for Null and Info. Think of the Null module glowing the dark, pulsing with it's direct input, changing color based on modulating Copper.

Might be a good way to learn how to do extension modules.

Done for Null (dead easy in this instance), and it's pretty cool when Glow in the dark is turned on, modulating Copper (from LFO, Imagine, S&H), and flickering on the secret Input port.

For info, which colorable item would it control? Panel, text background, or text color? I suppose chaining multiple Coppers would be possible: first sets text color, then text background, then the panel.

Done. Info now recognizes Copper for managing it's colors. See Info docs for the particulars.
