Generate a colour value from an RGBa value.

mixin--rgba.scss

/**
 * A very simple, pragmatic Sass mixin for generating any property with an rgba() colour
 * and its associated fallback (sourced from the original rgba() colour).
 *
 * Do not use if you require a fallback vastly different from the rgba().
 *
 * 1. Strip the alpha value and write out a solid rgb() color.
 * 2. Drop the red, green, blue, and alpha paramaters into the relevant places.
 *
    h1 {
        @include rgba(color, 255, 0, 0, 0.5)
    }
