Petroff10 style sheet

This example demonstrates the "petroff10" style, which implements the 10-color sequence developed by Matthew A. Petroff [1] for accessible data visualization. The style balances aesthetics with accessibility considerations, making it suitable for various types of plots while ensuring readability and distinction between data series.
