Added more formatting attributes for -D
I was noticing that you can now use --color/-D to set colors, which is so much nicer than the LESS_TERMCAP_
The new symbols * and _ for bold and underline are based on common convention/Markdown. ~ for standout comes from the C not bitwise operator (since terminals tend to reverse the colors in standout mode; I originally made it \ but I thought that might get confused with an escape character; some Markdown dialects use ~ for strikethrough, so ~ might not be the best choice either). & for blink is arbitrary.
This PR however does have one limitation: It still only works for lowercase letters. It's still not possible to make the prompt bold, for example. I might look into why later.
