[Cdash] coverage color palette

[Yngve Levinsen]

Ah, thanks. I didn't realise it was that obvious (sorry).

I went for a blue/red palette, but I am terrible at chosing good looking
colors so I would not recommend my specific choises. Blue/red generally
though I think is less problematic and more than obvious enough for
everyone to understand. It is also what lcov is using.

By the way, for the coverage files you should set background-color in
"span.lineNoCov" and "span.lineCov" of the css file (for other people
reading this having similar problem).

Cheers,
Yngve
