I presume here that "colorize packets" means "do the same coloring Wireshark
does".

On UN*X, if we have terminfo, we should probably use that, so that it'll use
the terminfo entry for $TERM to figure out how to do colors.  That should let
it use the right escape sequences on a 16-color ANSI terminal such as
xterm-16color and on a 256-color xterm such as xterm-256color.

Windows and its various terminal emulators (mintty, PuTTY, Windows console
a/k/a cmd.exe, etc.) are another matter, although if there's an
ncurses/terminfo for Windows *and* TERM somehow magically gets set, that might
do the trick.
