Thanks Haifei for the documentation update,

Can you also add a sample for the color in the 'testpmd_funcs.rst', in section
"Flow rules management"?

If you check through end of the section you will see same samples sub-sections
for various flow rules, since meter color action is new I think it would be
helpful to have the sample. You already have one in the commit log but may be
good to have it in the documentation too.
