Automatically detect whether the terminal background is a light color #28739

  1. Allow both "light" and "dark" text colors 

    Introduce a distinction between light and dark text colors. Use different default colors in both cases.

The text color scheme can be set via a command line option (--color=[light | dark]), or Julia can try to detect the terminal's background color. In this case, it roughly follows vim's approach:
1. Look for COLORFGBG environment variable
2. Use an ANSI escape sequence to query the terminal for the background color
3. Make an educated guess from the terminal name

Tested with iTerm2, Terminal, xterm on MacOS, Linux.
