color: add color_set helper for copying raw colors

To set up default colors, we sometimes strcpy() from the
default string literals into our color buffers. This isn't a
bug (assuming the destination is COLOR_MAXLEN bytes), but
makes it harder to audit the code for problematic strcpy
calls.

Let's introduce a color_set which copies under the
assumption that there are COLOR_MAXLEN bytes in the
destination (of course you can call it on a smaller buffer,
so this isn't providing a huge amount of safety, but it's
more convenient than calling xsnprintf yourself).
