This PR adds syntax highlighting to the SQLite shell for Linux and MacOS. The system runs the lexer on the current line of user input, and highlights keywords as bold green, and numeric/string constants as yellow. The text is highlighted as you are typing. For now this is disabled on Windows.
The PR also sets the following options as default in the shell:
See the image below for a preview.
For now the colors are fixed, but should probably be customizable.
Would appreciate it if any shell users would test this PR and submit feedback/report issues :)
