Subject: feat(colorcolchar): implement 'foreground' flag

This flag, denoted by an 'f', will force the character over the
colorcolumn to take on the colorcolumn's highlight, discarding any
highlight the character would have had otherwise.

This is the inverse of the 'background' flag, where the colorcolumn will
take the highlight of the character discarding any highlight it
otherwise would have had.
