DOC: Better visualization for the default color cycle example

The current visualization is quite messy (
https://matplotlib.org/stable/gallery/color/color_cycle_default.html).

Let's focus on:
- giving a one clear sequence
- giving the color names as 'CN' notation and named colors
- showing lines and patches (colors appear substantially different
  in thin lines and filled areas)

And don't bother with:
- multiple line widths - they are only a slight visual variation
  (compared to patches) and multiple widths clutter the example
- black background: It's enough to show the default color cycle on
  the default background.
