Each error now shows its wiki URL. In terminal output, the NPV code is an OSC 8 clickable hyperlink; in plain text it's a parenthesized URL. Part of NixOS#99
For errors following "- path: message", the path is now bold and the message is red. The wiki link uses an OSC 8 hyperlink (clickable NPV code) in terminal output. Errors with other formats fall back to all-red with the link appended.
