Summary: pix_chroma_key uses RGB values from 0-255, not 0-1

Initial Comment:
For whatever reason, [pix_chroma_key] uses RGB values between 0 and 255 rather than 0 and 1 like the rest of Gem.

Message:
using 2 diferents ranges depending on the input value is very confusing.
i agree with HCS : a warning should be send if a value > 1 is send so the
user should know that it must divide by 255 the input.

Message:
>From what I understand, this will now respond to both 0-1 and 0-255.  I
think this could lead to some very confusing bugs/behavior.  How about just
issuing a warning that the data range changed from 0-255 to 0-1?

Message:
should be fixed with revision 2828.
the behaviour is now: if all of the |values| are <=1.0, then we assume
they are normalized, else we switch to legacy mode.
