clang and many other compilers have colorized error messages, it improves a lot
readability such as pinpointing where the error is etc. I suggest having 'dmd
-color' flag to colorize error/warning messages as well.

As we've seen with the recent introduction of '-vcolumns' flag, simple things
like this improve quite a bit the experience. 

This is trivial to implement on posix with terminal codes (I'm using it myself
for my own logging), and should be doable on windows as well
(SetConsoleTextAttribute?).
