Description
On serial connections, with weird terminal emulators or when run interactively
the terminal may not support colours this would cause the dev_setup to
be aborted. This adds a simple check for terminal colors.
"-1" for no color support was empirically established.
How to test
Make sure dev_setup still finishes as expected and colors are still showing for normal terminals.
