Improve/fix the TUI's current source line highlight

With styling enabled, I think the way we display the TUI's
highlighted/current line is very ugly and distracting.  The problem in
my view is that we reverse foreground/background in colored text as
well, leading to rainbow of background colors.

This patch changes that to something that I find much more sensible --
only reverse the default foreground/background colors, leave styled
text colors alone.  If the foreground color is not the default
(because the text was styled), leave the foreground color as is.  If
e.g., the terminal is fg=BLACK, and bg=WHITE, and the style wants to
print text in RED, reverse the background color (print in BLACK), but
still print the text in RED.

Note: The new ui_file_style::set_fg method isn't called set_foreground
instead, because set_foreground is a macro in /usr/lib/term.h (ncurses).

gdb/ChangeLog:
2019-03-18  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	* tui/tui-io.c (reverse_mode_p, reverse_save_bg, reverse_save_fg):
	New globals.
	(apply_style): New, factored out from ...
	(apply_ansi_escape): ... this.  Handle reverse video mode.
	(tui_set_reverse_mode): New function.
	* tui/tui-io.h (tui_set_reverse_mode): New declaration.
	* tui/tui-winsource.c (tui_show_source_line): Use
	tui_set_reverse_mode instead of setting A_STANDOUT.
	* ui-style.h (struct ui_file_style) <set_reverse, set_fg, set_bg>:
	New setter methods.

that, we enable the A_REVERSE attribute, and re-reverse the
parsed-style's fb/bg colors.
Notes on the approach:
- there's no portable way to know which colors the default
fb/bg colors map to.
- this approach does the right thing even if you change the
terminal colors while GDB is running -- the reversed
colors automatically adapt.
