Well, I managed to get most of the color map entries detected and assembled into
a list, so it's at least a good proof of concept for this prototype tool.

Nodes = 7
Extracted Color Map = 7
[0.201 <0.995, 1.000, 0.000>]
[0.401 <0.000, 1.000, 0.000>]
[0.601 <0.000, 0.000, 1.000>]
[0.602 <0.000, 0.000, 1.000>]
[0.650 <1.000, 0.000, 1.000>]
[0.651 <1.000, 0.000, 1.000>]
[1.000 <1.000, 0.000, 0.000>]

Since my color-value graph has nice straight slopes, the Euclidean distance
between each loop step remains constant, and I just look for a change and then
add that to a dynamic array.

It's always good to have multiple redundant paths to the same goal/solution.
