Add support for the FORCE_COLOR environment variable (https://force-color.org). When FORCE_COLOR is set to any value other than "0", colors are enabled regardless of terminal detection. NO_COLOR takes precedence over FORCE_COLOR. This is useful in CI environments like GitHub Actions and GitLab CI that support ANSI colors but are not detected as TTYs. Fixes fatih#155
