FWIW, I am not sure that it is a good idea to stick into the code
knowledge inherent to TERM.  That would likely rot depending on how
terminals evolve in the future, and it is easy to test if a terminal
supports color or not but just switching PG_COLOR in a given
environment and look at the error message produced by anything
able to support coloring.
