[Feature Request] Allow color edit in multiple type and put result in a different type #78

From previous request: https://github.com/jeronimoek/color-picker-universal/issues/75, I'm glad that we have support for hex_0x format.

The hex_0x or hex format is not useful in design, while the hsl format often provides more useful information when working with accessibility.

My current workflow requires several steps to convert between the two formats.

I want to propose the feature, the color picker tool could be configured to display a type with its related draggable options, while keeping the final result in the another type.

This would save time and improve the workflow for users who prefer on a format but software requires another.

Currently, the color picker tool has draggable options for alpha and hue, and gradient space. I believe this is a built-in feature, but is is rarely useful unless working with alpha image

Please consider adding this new feature to the color picker tool to enhance its usability, this is a rough outline of what I imagine we could do: image This shows the result format in hex_0x while editing with hsla.

This is a very interesting addition. Until now I've been working with the VSC API, just providing info for the default VSC color picker, so this may take quite some work to pull off. I will look into it to see what options I have
