Description

Sometimes you don't need a full colorpicker but only something to choose from a few pre-defined colors so I was wondering if it should be helpful to add a new configuration to only show the Swatches part.

Should be pretty easy to do a PR for this but I'm wondering if someone finds it useful :)

Research direction
Examine the existing source code in the repository, particularly the swatches functionality. Look for how options are currently configured and where the swatches UI is rendered. Implement a new boolean option, e.g., 'showSwatchesOnly', that when true hides the color picker panel and displays only the swatches. Ensure backward compatibility by checking the new option in the initialization code and updating the rendering logic accordingly.
