 * Anim subclass for color transitions.
 * <p>Usage: <code>var myAnim = new Y.ColorAnim(el, { backgroundColor: { from: '#FF0000', to: '#FFFFFF' } }, 1, Y.Easing.easeOut);</code> Color values can be specified with either 112233, #112233, 
 * [255,255,255], or rgb(255,255,255)</p>

 * @namespace YAHOO.util

 * @requires YAHOO.util.AnimMgr
 * @requires YAHOO.util.Easing
 * @requires YAHOO.util.Bezier
 * @requires YAHOO.util.Dom
 * @requires YAHOO.util.Event
 * @constructor
 * @extends YAHOO.util.Anim
 * @param {HTMLElement | String} el Reference to the element that will be animated
 * @param {Object} attributes The attribute(s) to be animated.
 * Each attribute is an object with at minimum a "to" or "by" member defined.
 * Additional optional members are "from" (defaults to current value), "units" (defaults to "px").
 * All attribute names use camelCase.
 * @param {Number} duration (optional, defaults to 1 second) Length of animation (frames or seconds), defaults to time-based
 * @param {Function} method (optional, defaults to YAHOO.util.Easing.easeNone) Computes the values that are applied to the attributes per frame (generally a YAHOO.util.Easing method)
