Change --useColors to --colors:on|off and add help
Since we introduced automatic colors on terminals (via isatty) there is no way
to turn it off, since (undocumented) --useColors just turns them on.

This replaces --useColors with --colors:on|off, so anyone who prefers
non-colored compiler messages may now turn it off now.
