Subject: [PATCH] dev: add a colorize section to the scratch sample wiki

The sample wiki had no place to exercise :VimwikiColorize. Add a "Colour
spans" section to Syntax.wiki with words/phrases to wrap (and an already-
colorized span to render), plus a pointer in index.wiki's "Commands to
try" list. Lets the start-* launchers smoke-test the colorize fix.
