[css-color-3] Publish updated Recommendation with Candidate Corrections

[svgeesus]

Given that CSS Color 4 is not yet a Candidate Recommendation, it still seems worthwhile to republish an updated Rec of CSS Color 3. And recent Process changes mean that we just republish; there is no going back to CR or PR here.

Accordingly I have prepared an updated draft of CSS Color 3. It includes three Candidate Corrections.:

1. The same edit as was made to CSS Color 4, replacing the error-strewn HSL table which had allegedly been generated by ABC, with a correct version. The ABC conversion code is also swapped for the same JS code used in CSS Color 4 Issue 3088
2. Clarified case-insensitive is ASCII case-insensitive Issue 4599
3. Re-did the removal of Media from propdef as a Candidate Change

Note that it is no-longer realistically possible to use the old .src files as input. Bitrot, and vastly changed pubrules requirements means that the conversion requires a lot of hand-editing of the generated output. Instead, to ensure that the diff from the published, 19 June 2018 Recommendation is small, I have been directly editing the generated file. This is fine for small maintenance changes (same issue for CSS Fonts 3 actually].
