> Currently for highlighting in pattern layout we have only 16 colors, for example:
> {code:java}
>  <PatternLayout pattern="%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS} %highlight{[%level]}{FATAL=red bright} [%t] %logger{36} - %msg%n" disableAnsi="false"/>
> {code}
> At the same time true colors in SGR function are also [supported|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code#24-bit]. So, I suggest to add support of this colors, for example this way:
> {code:java}
>  <PatternLayout pattern="%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS} %highlight{[%level]}{FATAL=#ff0000} [%t] %logger{36} - %msg%n" disableAnsi="false"/>
> {code}
> and generated code should be:
> {code:java}
> ESC[38;2;255;0;0m
> {code}
