Colors.OLIVE is orange (at least in mirc/hexchat on windows) #134

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use Colors.OLIVE in a message

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Well I was looking for orange in the colours and saw it wasn't there, though 
Colors.OLIVE seems to be the code for orange, at least in mirc/hexchat. 
Possibly this is different between clients?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
PircBotX v1.9 running on Windows 7/Ubuntu server 12.04.

Obviously it could be any color depending on what the user has set, but orange 
is the default in mirc and hexchat, perhaps it should be clarified in the code 
and the constant renamed to something such as ORANGE_OLIVE.

Note, I haven't really changed Colors since PircBot. I haven't even touched the 
code just because I'm nervous about breaking things and none of the clients I 
use support Colors

Finally got around to doing some research though, and the colors are based off 
of mIRC colors ( http://www.mirc.com/colors.html ). Orange as well as several 
other colors have alternate colors, and the page says "Note: the above list is 
an approximation since some clients might interpret these indexes with some 
variation." This falls within that approximation and should be good enough
