[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Default COLOR_DARK_RED may soon no longer be "red" (Issue #3016)

I saw something about that mentioned in old issues/PRs.

If not now, when?

It's a simple change that doesn't hurt anything.  I'll go ahead and open a PR after #3013 is merged.

* Internal Geany code would be updated in the same PR.
* Only a few plugins are affected that can be updated in a single PR.
* Even if the PR to update plugins is delayed, they would still build with the deprecated names for at least two Geany releases (1.40 or later). 
* Existing binaries should continue functioning.  (I'll test to confirm.)
