according to a poll of gay people in my phone, purple is the most popular color to use for highlighting
| color | percentage |
| ---------- | ---------- |
| bold white | 6% |
| blue | 14% |
| cyan | 26% |
| purple | 37% |
| magenta | 17% |
unfortunately, purple is not supported by 16-color terminals, which rustc apparently wants to support for some reason.
until we require support for full 256-color terms (e.g. by doing the same feature detection as we currently do for urls), we can't use it.
instead, i have collapsed the purple votes into magenta on the theory that they're close, and also because magenta is pretty.
