Add more option types

[mwestphal]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Options generation from .json file was added in https://github.com/f3d-app/f3d/pull/1471, but only a few types were added:

• bool
• int
• double
• ratio
• double_vector
• string

Lets add more types.

• [ ] direction (specialisation of double_vector): https://github.com/f3d-app/f3d/issues/1645
• [ ] color (specialisation of double_vector)
• [ ] path (specialisation of string)

• [ ] rgba_colormap (specialisation of double_vector)

  To add a type it is needed to:

• Add it to types.h with the correct API
• Add a naive parse/format methods to options_tools.h.in
• Use it for at least one option in options.json
• Add testing in TestSDKOptions*
