Choose a different color for dates and imitate a 'temperature cool down'
depending upon age.
Originally I had planned to have the temperature cool down dependent on
the age of the project or file for example, as that might scale better,
but that can be added on top of this commit, e.g. instead of giving a
date, you could imagine giving a percentage that would be the linearly
interpolated between now and the beginning of the file.
Similarly to the previous patch, this offers the command line option
'--color-by-age' to enable this mode and the config option
'color.blame.highlightrecent' to select colors. A later patch will offer
a config option to select the default mode.

When using git-blame lots of lines contain redundant information, for
example in hunks that consist of multiple lines, the metadata (commit
name, author, date) are repeated. A reader may not be interested in those,
so offer an option to color the information that is repeated from the
previous line differently. Traditionally, we use CYAN for lines that
are less interesting than others (e.g. hunk header), so go with that.
The command line option '--color-lines' will trigger the coloring of
repeated lines, and the config option 'color.blame.colorLines' is
provided to select the color. Setting the config option doesn't imply
that repeated lines are colored. A later patch will introduce a config
to enable this mode by default.
