Subject: [PATCH] feat(colors): exempt templates/email/*.ninjatpl from the
 hardcoded-color check
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Mail clients don't support CSS custom properties — themed email wrappers
(codeless WO-WZ-021) inline resolved {{ colors.* }} hex with hex
fallbacks by necessity.
