If we talk to terminals that like colors, we need to ignore the vt100
escape sequences when matching strings.

An unprocessed barebox console prompt would e.g. look like:

  ESC[1;32mbarebox@ESC[1;36mARM QEMU virt64:/ESC[0m

where we cannot match for something like "barebox@ARM QEMU virt64:/".
The same applies to colored Linux terminal output of course.

The "\x1b\[" from the regex catches the standard start of ansii escape
sequence while the rest catches the actual command code executed.
