Black & White: Tint keeps the gray's luminosity, as After Effects

After Effects tints Black & White's gray like a Color blend: the tint colour's
hue and saturation at the gray's luminosity (weights 0.3 / 0.59 / 0.11, channels
outside 0..1 pulled back toward the gray). EffectCraft used the gray as HSL
lightness. Measured in AE 2026, Tint Color [1, 0.5, 0]: a red solid at Reds 10
(case 717) AE (43, 21, 0), EffectCraft was (51, 26, 0), now (43, 21, 0); a
yellow solid at the default sliders (gray 0.6, case 825) AE (255, 129, 2), now
(255, 129, 3); white stays white. The six sliders already matched AE on eight
colours (cases 816, 817). CPU and GPU.
