slve improvements

My technique only worked up to 16 level. Which is isn't any good for languages like lisp. slve fixed this with a recursive solution. Very need.

krischik improvements

  • Fixed all the bugs and merged all the code.
  • Vim got a little stricter on syntax highlights and some of slve tricks didn't work any more. I also added an option to choose between my colour set and those of the other contributors.
  • Increased the levels before repeating back to 16. Slve repeated after 10.
  • Switched the background colours around for better contrast between level 15 and level 0.
