P: Mask local-adjustment Preset menu doesn't recognize changes to Point Color

[John R Ellis]

If you've applied a local-adjustment preset X to a mask and then use the local Point Color tool, the preset menu doesn't change to show X (edited), and you can't update X with the current settings.

To reproduce in LR 13.1 / Mac OS (also see the attached screen recording):

1. Create a Linear Gradient mask.

2. Set the mask Exposure = -4.

3. Save as a local adjustment preset X.

4. Change any other local adjustment other than Point Color, and observe that Preset: changes to X (edited).  Resetting that adjustment to its default value changes Preset: back to X.

5. With Point Color, use the eye dropper to select a color. Then change all of its sliders to non-default values.

8. Observe that Preset: still shows X rather than X (edited), and the Preset menu won't let you update X with the current settings. This is incorrect.

@Rikk Flohr: Photography, I still observe the incorrect behavior using the bug recipe above.

Removing Fixed status and crossreferencing to new bug

FWIW @John R Ellis the SDK also returns any "empty" local_PointColors, so no active swatches as nil instead of {}

Your Plug-in is not affected as you copy local Settings are they are BUT it's good to know.
