colors/ui: Use fontMetrics to get the implicit cell size

Since we use a lot of text in these custom components,
with non-default text sizes the thumbnails can be too small
for the actual elements.

To make sure no text overflows, use fontMetrics to check for font
size and calculate the needed space accordingly.
FIXED-IN: 6.6.5
