Added colors & minor bugfix

- Created new file colors.go
- Added color options to the UserConfig
- Possible to disable colors (in UserConfig)
- Fixed a bug where the login screen says `/j` and not `{cmdChar}j`
- Changed how attachments look - so it's clear it isn't just a message
saying that
- Changed how formatOutput works (to be more DRY)
- Colored unread messages
Changes to be committed:
	new file:   colors.go
	modified:   main.go
	modified:   userConfigs.go
