Hi!

Currently CLANG_FORCE_COLOR_DIAGNOSTICS can be used to enable colored output
even when not running in a terminal. This is needed for build tools like ninja
and waf since they pipe clang's output.

It would be great if there was a global environment variable so that build
systems don't have to take into account every possible compiler / command.

Since on OSX CLICOLOR_FORCE is already used for this I thought it would be
great if more programs would support it. I've created a little page to document
the idea: http://bixense.com/clicolors/

So this bug report suggest that clang also checks for CLICOLOR_FORCE in
addition to CLANG_FORCE_COLOR_DIAGNOSTICS.
