Sets the color to use for a widget.
All other style values are left untouched.
Note
This API is mostly meant as a quick way for applications to
change a widget appearance. If you are developing a widgets
library and intend this change to be themeable, it is better
done by setting meaningful CSS classes and regions in your
widget/container implementation through gtk_style_context_add_class()
and gtk_style_context_add_region().
This way, your widget library can install a GtkCssProvider
with the GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_FALLBACK priority in order
to provide a default styling for those widgets that need so, and
this theming may fully overridden by the user's theme.
Note
Note that for complex widgets this may bring in undesired
results (such as uniform background color everywhere), in
these cases it is better to fully style such widgets through a
GtkCssProvider with the GTK_STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_APPLICATION
priority.
