ICC rendering intent

This option defines which rendering intent must be used on data for a specific colour space (i.e RGB or CMYK).

If the @RenderingIntent is not specified, the used rendering intent depends of the colour space (RGB or CMYK) and is printer-specific.

@SourceCS and @Operation="Convert" must be present in ColorSpaceConversionOp.

Two ColorSpaceConversionOp can be specified: one for RGB colour space and one for CMYK colour space.
