[JENKINS-70715] Customized colors for data series in plots

Some reasons for this request:

• the color yellow is very hard to read on white background
  
  Example: Plot 1, data series bbb


• The same data series in different plots should have the same colours for better recognition
  
  Example: Data series ccc is green in Plot 1 but blue in Plot 2


• The colours used change with the number of data series
  
  Example: 2nd data series is yellow in Plot 1 but light green in Plot 2
