Add Check for IEC Standard Resistor on VtC #69

Some key notes:

En means that every decade (0.1-1.0, 1-10, 10-100, etc.) is divided in n steps on a logarithmic scale.

Series:

E6 - 20% tolerance E12 - 10% E24 - 5% (also available with 1%) E48 - 2% E96 - 1% E192 - 0.5% (also used for resistors with 0.25% and 0.1%).

The idea is that when a user has a value typed in, if it doesn't fall within its respective series, then we add a warning (new shade of gold is needed) to inform the user that this is not a standard IEC resistor

We will also likely add another link out to the standard resistor values page (not sure where yet).
