The series is an attempt at improving the readability of some of the
bitbake-setup output on the console, to improve user experience.

Here's a summary of the changes:

- Align outputs of choices in the init command (instead of tabs)
- Print the diffs with color, which makes them much easier to read.

All the coloring can be disabled by passing --color=never.

Changes in v2:
- Drop the --quiet patch
- Define a run_git_diff() helper function used for printing colored
  diffs. Drop get_diff() in favor of it.
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20260213-improve-bbsetup-readability-v1-0-41cec3b06992@bootlin.com
