The color selection has to be specified in the configuration file of the
virtual machine with the new parameter 'colors'. This parameter
defines the colors to be assigned to that particular VM, expressed as a
list of ranges.
Add documentation for the new 'colors' parameter.

+Specify the color configuration for the guest. B<COLORS_RANGE> is expressed
+using colors numbers. The range starts always from 0 up to the maximum amount
+of available colors.
+The number of available colors depends on the LLC layout of the specific
+platform and determines the maximum allowed value.  This number can be either
+calculated or read from the output given by the hypervisor during boot, if
+DEBUG logging is enabled.
