Anki-android: [Feature Request] - Add setting option to choose "Default Whiteboard Pen Color"

[hugomarins]

Because of the background of my note types, I usually use the red pen color in the whiteboard. But every single time I start reviewing a deck, I have to choose the whiteboard pen color again, as the default blue has a bad contrast in my note types.

I think it would be very cool if a setting option was added to "Settings > Reviewing > Whiteboard" section, so that another default pen color could be chosen.

Another good solution would be the last chosen color be saved (& remembered) for the specific deck, just as enabling whiteboard currently is.

Thanks!
