Linux console is very weird when it comes to ANSI color sequences. Not only that it isn't aware of ':' separator (c.f. https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/40878#issuecomment-3979826739), it even skips the whole CSI-m sequence if it contains parts it cannot parse. Hence when color mode is set to 256 (i.e. default when no extra info is available) let's always emit two distinct CSI-m sequences, and set the fallback 16 color first in case the terminal doesn't have complete support for the 256 one. Replaces #40905
