Bug: Can't select a previously used process state color #6854
Description
Summary
When selecting a color for a process state, if you save the state with a color, then change it, you won’t be able to change it back to the color you initially selected (see attached recording).
Steps to reproduce:
- Navigate to settings > any tracker space type > process states
- Select a new color for any process state and save.
- Try to re-select the previous color and notice the save button is grayed out.
Actual Result
Save button is grayed out when selecting a previously used color.
Expected Result
User should be able to select from any of the colors for the process state.
Note: I haven’t tested all possible cases yet, for example, changing color multiple times, different state statuses, custom states vs default states etc.

The state editor in Settings > space types > process states used to compare the chosen color against the status's original color, so after one change the original color could not be saved again. Since #9483 the Save check compares against the color currently stored for the status in that space type, so switching back to a previously used color enables Save. This looks resolved, so the issue could be closed.

@AbigailDawson — based on the check described above, this looks resolved in the current code. Could you please close this issue if you agree? If you think it is not fixed yet, please describe what still goes wrong (steps, expected vs. actual behaviour), so it can be looked at again.
