read-face-name bugs

1. read-face-name's prompt arg should be like every other prompt
   arg. It should not automatically add a colon and space. Besides,
   the doc string mentions that you shouldn't add a space (without
   saying why), but it neglects to mention that you shouldn't add a
   colon either.

2. I think the code is wrong for the case where there is a face
   property like this on the character: ((foreground-color
   "Firebrick")). The code tests whether the car is foreground-color
   or background-color, but it should test whether the caar is that.

   To test this, do M-x debug-on-entry read-face-name, and then M-x
   customize-face font-lock-comment-face. Then, put point on the
   second "sample" text (next to the foreground field), and do M-:
   (read-face-name "foo"). Step through the debugger, and you'll see
   that the ((foreground-color . "Firebrick")) case falls through the
   crack.
