Summary 0000071: patch: implement "--color" option for ls coloring control
Description currently, if ls coloring is configured, there's no way to disable coloring if it's not wanted. since the colors aren't configurable, this can result in illegible output (particularly on screens with light backgrounds). the workarounds for this are somewhat inconvenient.

this patch implements the GNU "--color" option, to allow full control over coloring. the default behavior is now "no coloring", but this default has been made configurable for those that want full backward compatibility with previous releases. ("--color" was implemented because there is no GNU short-option equivalent. this is the only long option supported by busybox ls.)
