Suggestion: Add option to set default water color to the one from CS Locomotion's.

Hello, I always felt that the water color used in RCT2 "sequel" Chris Sawyer's Locomotion looks more natural and nicer to look at in general. I have noticed OpenRCT2 has adopted many UI improvements that CSLM introduced (such as the train loading screen, updated ride naming dialog, and updated open and save dialogs). So I think adding the updated water color as an option for those who want to use the refined water graphics Chris Sawyer made post-rct2 makes sense. I genuinely believe that had CS made another RCT sequel after 2, he would have used this new water color.

Do you have any thoughts or objections?

The water colour is something you can change already - it ships with five different colours by default. It shouldn’t be all that hard to port it - a "water style" is just a palette of 326 RGB colours.

I don’t think we’ll be shipping it by default, though. Locomotion’s style is altogether a bit more realistic, but also less vibrant. So I’m not sure if it would be a very good fit.
