Both representations appear commonly used.
I mentioned my rationale in response to V1: "r5g6b5" is a much more
well-defined structure. It's directly algorithmically parse-able if
required, whereas you'd need somewhat more complex heuristics to
determine exactly what rgb565 or argb2101010 mean, since all the numbers
are run together without delimiters.
