Add color family filter to inventory index

Adds an 'All Colors' dropdown to the inventory filter bar populated from
the ColorFamilies values already stored on inventory items. Selecting a
family (e.g. 'Red') returns only items tagged with that family.

Also refactors the 16-branch if/else filter builder into a single
composable predicate, making future filter additions trivial.
