feat: support terminal color profiles (#1151)

This adds support for detecting the terminal's color profile. It adds a
new `ColorProfileMsg` message that get sent when the program starts. You
can force a specific color profile using the `WithColorProfile` option.

When a program requests the `RGB` or `Tc` terminfo capabilities, Bubble
Tea will read the response, if there is one, and upgrade the cached
color profile and send the new profile to the program again.
