Creates a Color from an Android 64-bit color value. This differs from the `Color` constructor
accepting a `Long` in that the constructor assumes the incoming value is a 32-bit ARGB color,
while this is a 64-bit `ColorLong` color from Android. `Color.value` isn't fully compatible with
Android's 64-bit `ColorLong` values as some color spaces differ, so this method handles the
conversion.
