Issue a warning if the user chooses colors that aren't accessible.

This is definitely in the "shoot for the moon" column, but thought I'd add it.

We'd be looking for a contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for WCAG AA

Ca11y's default styles should absolutely pass this test.

But with regard to user styles, should this be a concern of Ca11y? To me this seems like an external thing. I think the best thing to do would be to expound on this in the README and provide some links and recommendations.
