Use `bold` by default on Windows

On Windows the blue color by default is pretty unreadable. Even though this isn’t really something we should care about as it’s a system issue, I’m tired of being trolled about it on various repos.

Normal and bold (bold is really just bright) state:

All the colors are pretty dim by default:

Thoughts?

I also wonder if this could/should be fixed in libuv. ?

If I were using this library though, and would work on windows (slim chance 😉), I would be surprised that Chalk.blue does not correspond to the ‘standard’ blue styling. Especially considering 1200+ modules depend on Chalk, some of which are libraries themselves, an unpredictable api is a bad thing. Chalk.blue transparently becoming Chalk.blue.bold is not something you’d expect looking at the api.

On the other hand, if we add a note in the readme.md, then I guess you’re right it couldn’t do too much harm. It’s not a problem I’ve experienced, but if you think it makes unhappy windows users slightly happier, go for it 👍

@lydell cmd.exe is far from an actual terminal/system, but that’s irrelevant as we already decided to fix this.

Does a barely visible blue “work”?

Apparently Microsoft thought so.
