Fix ColorSplasher UnboundLocalError and code cleanup

Description

ColorSplasher fails with UnboundLocalError: Local variable 'version' referenced before assignment when applying colors.

The version variable is used to check Revit 2019+ background pattern support but was:

• In ApplyColors.Execute: Only defined inside a rooms/spaces/areas conditional block, then referenced unconditionally
• In CreateFilters.Execute: Never defined at all

Fix: Move version = int(HOST_APP.version) to execute unconditionally before use in both methods.

Additional cleanup:

• Removed unused variable new_uiapp
• Removed unused exception variable e in exception handler
• Removed blank lines with trailing whitespace

Note: The spacing variable initial assignment triggers a linter warning but is intentionally kept as a safety default. The variable is used later in the code after being updated inside a loop.

@jmcouffin tested, works.

Remarks:

• new_uiapp, spacing and e are still in there unused
• (blank lines with whitespace exist)
• the PR message refers to the wrong bug report under "related issues"

Removed unused variables (new_uiapp, spacing initial value, e in exception handler) and all blank lines with trailing whitespace in commit 27f7c55.

@copilot review if the spacing is actually used

@copilot review if the spacing is actually used

Reviewed: spacing is used in two places after being set in the loop:

• Line 456: y_pos = prev_bbox.Min.Y - (height + spacing)
• Line 457: ini_x = max(list_max_x) + spacing

The linter warning refers to the initial assignment (spacing = 0) never being read before being overwritten in the loop (line 452: spacing = height * 0.25). This is technically correct but the variable itself is necessary. The initial value is just a safety default if the loop somehow doesn't execute.

Pull request overview

This PR fixes a critical UnboundLocalError bug in ColorSplasher where the version variable was referenced before assignment, and includes code cleanup to remove unused variables and trailing whitespace.

Key changes:

• Fixed version variable initialization in both ApplyColors.Execute and CreateFilters.Execute methods
• Removed genuinely unused variables (new_uiapp, initial spacing value, and exception object e)
• Cleaned up trailing whitespace throughout the file
