alias "colored with greyscale BG" -> "monochrome background"

BUR #34956 is pending approval.

create alias colored_with_greyscale_background -> monochrome_background

Redundant tag. But I think it'd make a good alias for those tagging or searching.

Re monochrome_background: It doesn't make sense to apply this when the background is partially colored. Make a new tag for that if you must, but if partially colored isn't considered monochrome (it's not and it shouldn't be), then a partially colored background isn't a monochrome background either.

By my reading of the wiki for the two, both tags are for use when foreground elements are colored, but monochrome_background permits any color of background, including grey, while colored_with_greyscale_background is the specific example of a grey background. At the very least, there should be an implication here, since greyscale is a subset of monochrome.

My comment was referring specifically to the following part:

The background might even be left partially or completely uncolored.

While it's true that this has been in the wiki for about 6 years, Ourobouro just adapted it when rewriting the wiki, it doesn't make sense to have given how color is handled elsewhere.
