When the colored output was originally added in #489 and there was a discussion then about that it should ideally be in a higher-level crate rather than in the runtime-core library crate.
I agree with that, users of the library shouldn't be required to bring in the
colored
crate dependency and ideally also not have stdout/stderr output either, that should be controlled by the application that uses wasmer-runtime-core, not the library.Disabling stdout/stderr output would be more intrusive but I wanted to at least not have colored output and another crate dependency so this change removes the colored output and the
colored
crate.colored
also had quite a few dependencies and, while well used, is not super actively maintained. So this change also removes 6 transitive dependencies of thecolored
crate which is great.This could potentially be a feature flag instead also, but would be a bit messier.
