Description: Assigns perceptually-informed color palettes to clustered
        data (e.g. scRNA-seq clusters / cell subtypes from 'Seurat' or
        plain UMAP coordinate tables), where clusters that belong to
        the same "family" (e.g. subtypes of T cells) can be colored
        either harmoniously (shared hue, varying shade) or with maximal
        contrast (with family membership encoded via a secondary
        channel). Families can be auto-detected from embedding-space
        hierarchical clustering or supplied explicitly, and every
        generated color remains individually overridable, with manual
        overrides preserved across regeneration. Colors are constructed
        in the HCL space as in Zeileis et al. (2020)
        <doi:10.18637/jss.v096.i01>, separated using the CIEDE2000
        color difference of Sharma, Wu and Dalal (2005)
        <doi:10.1002/col.20070>, and checked for color-vision
        deficiency using the simulation of Machado, Oliveira and
        Fernandes (2009) <doi:10.1109/TVCG.2009.113>. Core algorithms
        have no UI dependencies; an optional interactive 'shiny' UI is
        provided separately.
