Implement precise color analysis using uploaded dBZ legend

- Add precise color extraction from canadaradarlegend_point1_to_200dbz.png
- Extract 12 distinct dBZ intensity levels from 0.1 to 200 dBZ
- Use logarithmic mapping for accurate color-to-dBZ conversion
- Update analyzer to use precise legend colors instead of manual approximations
- Improve color matching accuracy for better precipitation analysis
