Draw apa0/tpc0 dead area using gray color and apa1/tpc1 by Red color. This is done so that we can distinguish nothing dead areas in bee displays.

- apa0 dead areas render in gray (0x888888)
- apa1 dead areas render in red (0xFF0000)
- Color selection based on APA label in dead area filename

This allows visual differentiation between dead areas from different APAs
in the 3D event display.

Add explanation of how different anodes are visually differentiated in the 3D display:
- apa0/tpc0 dead areas render in grey (0x888888)
- apa1/tpc1 dead areas render in red (0xFF0000)
- Color selection based on filename label parsing

This improves clarity when visualizing multi-anode detectors like SBND.

while this might be ok for sbnd, it may not be a good solution for other detectors (e.g. protodune, dune). what happens if we have apa0-16? Also, many colors are used for track clusters and gray is more distict from those colors. The current GUI already lets you select which deadarea(s) to show, so I think that should suffice for your purpose.
