This patch makes the CLI print the error causes of the current thread's
error object, if any, before it finally exits.

The causes are printed from the most recent to the least recent. In
other words, the root cause, or deepest cause, is printed at the end of
the list. This is similar to what Python does when it prints a
traceback.

The CLI prints error causes with colors if supported to highlight the
cause's module name, specific properties, file name, and line number.
The CLI prints the messages indented with two spaces and folded on the
terminal's current width if available, otherwise on 80 columns.

You can test the output with

    babeltrace2 $(uuidgen)

This prints something like:
