FG to inverted BG color

πŸ“ Description:
* This function is used to change Background Color to inverted Foreground color (in RGB space), (or any other color, really);|br|πŸ’Ό Photoshop analogue:
* Changing the color manually;
πŸ‘ Usage:
* To get an appropriate color for brushes with Foreground/Background expression turned on;
* Best used when assigned to a hotkey (mine is Ctrl/Cmd+`)

I love brushes with FB/BG expression in Color Dynamics turned on. However usually I have White color as a BG color so they add a lot of white to canvas. In this case I use this function to get a more beutral color as a BG color.
