New issue 1317: Cannot set background color after changing color map
https://bitbucket.org/yt_analysis/yt/issues/1317/cannot-set-background-color-after-changing
Hsi-Yu Schive:
The following scripts fails.
```
#!python
import yt
ds = yt.load( "enzo/IsolatedGalaxy/galaxy0030/galaxy0030" )
sz = yt.SlicePlot( ds, 'z', 'density', center='c' )
sz.set_cmap( 'density', 'afmhot' )
sz.set_background_color( 'density' )
sz.save()
```
Error messages:
```
#!python
File "demo.py", line 5, in <module>
sz.set_background_color( 'density' )
File "/projects/ncsa/grav/hyschive/yt/yt.ori/yt/visualization/plot_container.py", line 69, in newfunc
rv = f(*args, **kwargs)
File "/projects/ncsa/grav/hyschive/yt/yt.ori/yt/visualization/plot_container.py", line 317, in set_background_color
cmap = yt_colormaps[cmap]
KeyError: 'afmhot'
```
Note that setting background color explicitly works. For example,
```
#!python
sz.set_background_color( 'density', color='black' )
```
