Parse color code

Description

This operation converts a color code in a supported format to other standard color formats.

This operation accepts a color code as input and automatically detects the format. It then returns the equivalent color in the chosen format. If the input format is invalid or cannot be parsed, the operation returns all fields as empty strings instead of an error.
