Add ColorImage::from_gray_iter (#3536)

Add an alternative method for creating a [`ColorImage`] that accepts
`Iterator` as the argument. It can be useful when `&[u8]` is not
available but the iterator is.

Please read the "Making a PR" section of
[`CONTRIBUTING.md`](https://github.com/emilk/egui/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
before opening a Pull Request!

* Keep your PR:s small and focused.
* If applicable, add a screenshot or gif.
* If it is a non-trivial addition, consider adding a demo for it to
`egui_demo_lib`, or a new example.
* Do NOT open PR:s from your `master` branch, as that makes it hard for
maintainers to add commits to your PR.
* Remember to run `cargo fmt` and `cargo cranky`.
* Open the PR as a draft until you have self-reviewed it and run
`./scripts/check.sh`.
* When you have addressed a PR comment, mark it as resolved.

Please be patient! I will review you PR, but my time is limited!
