/// A trait for color types that can have or be given transparency (alpha channel).
///
/// `WithAlpha` is an interface for adding, removing and setting the alpha
/// channel of a color type. The color type itself doesn't need to store the
/// transparency value as it can be transformed into or wrapped in a type that
/// has a representation of transparency. This would typically be done by
/// wrapping it in an [`Alpha`] instance.
///
/// # Deriving
/// The trait is trivial enough to be automatically derived. If the color type
/// has a field for transparency (an alpha channel), it has to be marked with
/// `#[palette(alpha)]` to be taken into account.
///
/// Derived without an internal alpha channel:
///
/// ```
/// use palette::WithAlpha;
///
/// #[derive(WithAlpha)]
/// struct CustomColor {
///     redness: f32,
///     glow: f32,
///     glitter: f32,
/// }
///
/// let color = CustomColor {
///     redness: 0.8,
///     glow: 2.5,
///     glitter: 1000.0
/// };
/// let transparent = color.with_alpha(0.3);
///
/// assert_eq!(transparent.alpha, 0.3);
/// ```
///
/// Derived with an internal alpha channel:
///
/// ```
/// use palette::WithAlpha;
///
/// #[derive(WithAlpha)]
/// struct CustomColor {
///     redness: f32,
///     glow: f32,
///     glitter: f32,
///
///     #[palette(alpha)]
///     alpha: u8,
/// }
///
/// let color = CustomColor {
///     redness: 0.8,
///     glow: 2.5,
///     glitter: 1000.0,
///     alpha: 255
/// };
/// let transparent = color.with_alpha(10);
///
/// assert_eq!(transparent.alpha, 10);
/// ```
