create contextual number generator

[ybakos]

Create a number generator that returns values based on input and context. For example, color adjustments should be bounded to 0 and 255, and perhaps adjusted relative to the scale of the original number.

int newRedValue = generator.color(10); // between 0 and 30
int newGreenValue = generator.color(100); // between 50 and 150

The generator should return different values based on context. For example, size ranges should be different than stroke weight ranges.

What are your thoughts about using floats for color components? In PB, I
use 0.0-1.0 as default range, more native type for math expressions.

I like floats rather than 0 - 255.
