Color!

I've posted this as a RFE on Twitter, but I think it's an actual issue with the web display as well, hence my filing this bug. :)

See https://botbot.me/freenode/docker-dev/msg/16924140/ for a clear case of what should be a red heart (Ctrl+C, 04 ♥), but is instead just "04♥" and the \003 byte/character gets essentially ignored instead of parsed nicely.

Thanks @jfrazelle for putting this back on our radar. It is not in our immediate plan but I understand the need.

Seeing this in the GitHub IRC notification output as well: https://botbot.me/freenode/loot/msg/28235947/

I'd like to see this functionality as well. I use several other services to post colored text to my channels, and it's driving me crazy to see IRC color numbers in the web logs.

This may be more need than expected. It sometimes causes confusion when used with numbers, for example messages from notifico: https://botbot.me/freenode/pocketmine/2016-02-22/?msg=60609495&page=1
It is confusing to see both the number of commits/commit SHA and the color code together.

If it is inconvenient to add these color codes into HTML, would it be possible to trim them from the logs displayed first?
