Add key-colors to appstream for gnome-software

gnome-software uses some heuristics to extract ‘key’ colours from the icon of an application. Unfortunately, those heuristics can’t always be perfect, and for KTurtle they choose quite a dark colour. Help them out by explicitly specifying a suitable ‘key’ colour from the icon in the app’s appdata.
