Description
Whenever a value of "white" is given for the color attribute of the font tag, Html.fromHtml(String) does not change the color, and the span is not added. This is because the value of Color.WHITE = -1 (#ffffffff), which is the same int used to mark a color that wasn't found or NumberFormatException. The relevant code is in Html.endFont.
This can be fixed by allowing Color.getHtmlColor(String) to return Integer rather than int, and use null to indicate that a color was not found.
There also seems to be an issue where passing in an alpha value (e.g. color='#ffffffff') doesn't work (XmlUtils.convertValueToInt(String, int) throws a NumberFormatException). Using '#ffffff' works.
