However, where are they sold?
Is there a certain name for them?
How do
they work, (meaning there must be more than 3 LEDs in one body and
blending colors)?

Full spectrum LED lights are also known as "LED grow lights". They
are favored by indoor marijuana growers: ><https://www.google.com/search?q=led+grow+lights> ><http://www.growweedeasy.com/led-grow-lights>

They're a mix of different color LED's. ><https://www.spectrumkingled.com/full-spectrum-led-grow-lights/> ><https://www.google.com/search?q=led+grow+lights&tbm=isch>
If you're growing indoors, you'll need a VPD (vapor pressure deficit)

Anyhow, those are full spectrum, but not what I want. What I want are
strings of lights, like Christmas lights, with a control to change
colors, brightness, and so on. I am not sure how much controls are
available on the light strings, or if all the control is done by
computers.
I remember reading some years ago, where they use special software on a
PC to program the lights, and the computer then controls modules that
make the lights change to music. Thats what this holiday display was
doing in the park I visited, and they did an awesome job of it.

Increasingly grow lights omit green LEDs almost entirely since there is
no point in wasting energy producing green light that will be reflected
by the green chlorophyll pigment in the leaf. The latest high efficiency
grow lights are a hideous shade of magenta come shocking pink.

Today's fashions usually follow whatever yesterdays social rejects
seem to favor. In the 1980's, the baggy pants favored by prison
residents became fashionable. In the 1970's pastel colors favored by
the gays because acceptable as the colors were integrated into every
day clothes. In the 1960's, conspicuous poverty became a fashion
statement. Etc. Today, it's emulating a financially successful drug
grower, who presumably wears clothes to match his LED grow lights.
I noticed that a local bar has one of those Internet Juke Boxes and it
has a border around it that contains the full spectrum LEDs. It goes
thru all the colors of the rainbow, and is quite colorful. Now that I
know that those LEDs consist of multiple LED elements inside one "bulb",
I am curious what sort of circuit blends them? I assume there is a chip
made just for that purpose....

If they go through ALL the colors of the rainbow, they are NOT "full >spectrum" or "grow lite" LED's, which omit yellow and green.
They are probably "RGB LED" strips. ><https://www.google.com/search?q=rgb+led+strips&tbm=isch>
which include yellow and green.

Then I want RGBs. I DO NOT want grow lights for designing colorful
displays. And I DO want yellow and green (and all the colors of the
rainbow).
I just used the term "full spectrum" because I want ALL colors, not just three colors like those color changing solar sidewalk lights.
To me, for a lack of search terms, full spectrum means all colors
visible to the eye, which will include colors like aqua, amber, violet,
and so on....
But now I learned that "full spectrum' refers to grow lights, which
appear to be far from the actual full spectrum of colors.

Interesting reading. Seems like marijuana growing sure has gone hi-tech.
Whatever happened to just letting nature grow some seeds out in a field?
