mutt: Add colors for nested quotes and patch diffs
I've been subscribing to a lot of mailing lists recently, and a good few
of them send diffs back and forth regularly. It's significantly easier
to follow the conversation/code when:
1. Nested quotes are colored separately
2. The diffs are green/red colored like `git diff`
This is my first attempt at a color scheme -- fun stuff!
