[CSSWG][css-color-3] Updating REC of CSS Color Level 3

The CSSWG is updating the CSS Color Level 3 Recommendation to incorporate an erratum.
   https://www.w3.org/Style/2011/REC-css3-color-20110607-errata.html
Blink and Gecko both pass the relevant testcase, proving two implementations:
   https://test.csswg.org/suites/css-color-3_dev/nightly-unstable/html4/t44-currentcolor-inherited-c.htm

The current step in the process is (to make things really clear and understandable
to outsiders, apparently) republishing as “Candidate Recommendation”. Therefore we
have published a CR of CSS Color Level 3: https://www.w3.org/TR/css-color-3/

On the plus side, this means the spec copy on /TR has incorporated the erratum into
its text.

On the minus side, Chris Lilly will be jumping through a number of Process hoops
and additional publications for us before we can actually return the spec to REC
status, and it will therefore be masquerading as an incomplete and untested spec
for the next few months.

As always, feedback on the spec can be sent to the CSSWG by posting to www-style@w3.org
with [css-color-3] in the subject line or (preferably) filed in GitHub at
   https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues

Comments on the REC-updating process can be sent to the AB at
   https://github.com/w3c/w3process/

For the CSS WG,
