Revert default metric to DE_2000

 Currently, dithering in custom colors is limited to [`ErrorDiffusion`](@ref) and [`OrderedDither`](@ref) algorithms:
 ````@example simple_example
-dither(img, rubiks_colors)

-This result doesn't look too good since the default metric `DE_AB()` just uses Euclidean distances in `Lab` color space. 
-Playing around with [perceptual color difference metrics from Colors.jl](https://juliagraphics.github.io/Colors.jl/stable/colordifferences/) can help:
-````@example simple_example
-using Colors
-dither(img, rubiks_colors; metric=DE_2000())

 This looks much better than simply quantizing to the closest color:
 ````@example simple_example
-dither(img, ClosestColor(), rubiks_colors; metric=DE_2000())

-An interesting effect can also be achieved by color dithering gray-scale images:
