/// A trait for calculating relative contrast between two colors.
///
/// W3C's Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 suggest a method
/// to calculate accessible contrast ratios of text and background colors for
/// those with low vision or color deficiencies, and for contrast of colors used
/// in user interface graphics objects.
///
/// These criteria are recommendations, not hard and fast rules. Most
/// importantly, look at the colors in action and make sure they're clear and
/// comfortable to read. A pair of colors may pass contrast guidelines but still
/// be uncomfortable to look at. Favor readability over only satisfying the
/// contrast ratio metric. It is recommended to verify the contrast ratio
/// in the output format of the colors and not to assume the contrast ratio
/// remains exactly the same across color formats. The following example checks
/// the contrast ratio of two colors in RGB format.
///
/// ```rust
/// #[macro_use]
/// extern crate approx;
///
/// use std::str::FromStr;
/// use palette::{Srgb, RelativeContrast};
///
/// fn main() {
///     // the rustdoc "DARK" theme background and text colors
///     let my_background_rgb: Srgb<f32> = Srgb::from_str("#353535").unwrap().into_format();
///     let my_foreground_rgb = Srgb::from_str("#ddd").unwrap().into_format();
///
///     assert!(my_background_rgb.has_enhanced_contrast_text(&my_foreground_rgb));
/// }
/// ```
///
/// The possible range of contrast ratios is from 1:1 to 21:1. There is a
/// Success Criterion for Contrast (Minimum) and a Success Criterion for
/// Contrast (Enhanced), SC 1.4.3 and SC 1.4.6 respectively, which are concerned
/// with text and images of text. SC 1.4.11 is a Success Criterion for "non-text
/// contrast" such as user interface components and other graphics. The relative
/// contrast is calculated by `(L1 + 0.05) / (L2 + 0.05)`, where `L1` is the
/// luminance of the brighter color and `L2` is the luminance of the darker
/// color both in sRGB linear space. A higher contrast ratio is generally
/// desireable.
