Generates an RGBA color instance array based on the corresponding harmony
- The only exception to this are 'analogous' and 'double-split-complementary',
which return the original color as the second element.
- For 'monochromatic' the original color is always first and the array size is `amount + 1` evenly spaced colors.

Generates color space instances that ColorMaster can interpret. This allows the user to manipulate colors via helpful functions/wrappers.
If a color's values are not valid, ColorMaster uses "black" or a mixture with provided values that are valid (in the corresponding colorspace) by default. Additionally, ColorMaster works in RGBA space internally by default and only converts to other color spaces as necessary. For example, printing a string requires conversion to the correct color space. On that end, it is also easier to work with HSLA space when performing rotation and other hue related adjustments. This approach ensures the highest possible accuracy when converting to other color spaces.
