Crayon fails to detect correct number of terminal colors in Rstudio

[s-fleck]

crayon::num_colors() sometimes returns just 1, which causes undesired results with make_style(). The error occurs for me after building a package with ctrl+shift+b, though I do not know if this is consistent way to reproduce the error.

Using crayon::num_colors(forget = TRUE) always returns the correct number of colors. Maybe this should be the default?

I am using Rstudio Version 1.1.338

We cannot make forget = TRUE the default, because it is slow.

This probably happens because crayon is loaded from an R profile, and at this point, rstudioapi is not ready to let crayon know about the color support. We'll try to work around this with the RStudio IDE team.

I think this is fixed now.
