Improve specification of conductor_bsdf defaults (#2272)
This changelist improves the specification of the default values for the `ior` and `extinction` inputs of `conductor_bsdf`, aligning them with the data definition of this node. See https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/MaterialX/blob/main/libraries/pbrlib/pbrlib_defs.mtlx#L82 for reference.

193193

194194
* **`conductor_bsdf`**: Constructs a reflection BSDF based on a microfacet reflectance model[^Burley2012]. Uses a Fresnel curve with complex refraction index for conductors/metals. If an artistic parametrization[^Gulbrandsen2014] is needed the [<artistic_ior>](#node-artistic-ior) utility node can be connected to handle this.
195195
* `weight` (float): Weight for this BSDF’s contribution, range [0.0, 1.0]. Defaults to 1.0.
196-
* `ior `(color3): Index of refraction. Defaults to (0.18, 0.42, 1.37) (approximate IOR for gold).
197-
* `extinction` (color3): Extinction coefficient. Defaults to (3.42, 2.35, 1.77) (approximate extinction coefficients for gold).
196+
* `ior `(color3): Index of refraction. Defaults to (0.183, 0.421, 1.373) (approximate IOR for gold).
197+
* `extinction` (color3): Extinction coefficient. Defaults to (3.424, 2.346, 1.770) (approximate extinction coefficients for gold).
198198
* `roughness` (vector2): Surface roughness. Defaults to (0.05, 0.05).
199199
* `thinfilm_thickness` (float): The thickness of an iridescent thin film layer[^Belcour2017] applied over the base bsdf, expressed in nanometers. Defaults to 0.0, for no thin film.
200200
* `thinfilm_ior` (float): The index of refraction of the thin film layer. Defaults to 1.5.
