Update user id color generation

Update the author color generation.  Now, instead of generating
an entire hex string based on the user id, the user id instead
is used to generate a hue value.  After this hue value is created,
there is some logic to tweak first the lightness and then saturation
values to achieve a readable color (in contrast to the background).

This change makes it so that user colors will not vary as wildly
between the different themes.

The values still are not cached and still do not update
initially when the theme is changed.  Both of these things
will be resolved.
