Description
Looking ad [this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46326151/how-to-set-one-candle-stick-color-using-mpl-finance), it seems like in the old API version you could set the color of a single candle, is there a way to do the same with the current version without using the function of the old version?? (i v already seen i could use the same function of the example by doing -> from mplfinance.original_flavor import candlestick_ohl)

Determine whether the current API can accept a color for one candle without importing mplfinance.original_flavor, then verify that a single candle renders with the requested color.
