This function adds "base" format to a string. The given formats are inserted directly after any RESET code in the sequence.
An example of where this is needed is in the logger.
Without this change, the following code:
$logger->notice("I'm a " . TextFormat::RED . "special" . TextFormat::RESET . " cookie");
causes the "cookie" part of the message to show as grey, instead of the expected aqua for NOTICE level messages.
There are also many workarounds for this problem throughout the server, mostly in command outputs, being forced to use WHITE instead of RESET to avoid breaking the logger output.
this has a number of implications:
- Console command outputs are now (obviously) not logged. This is consistent with every other type of command sender, be it RCON, players, or anything else.
- The assumption that the console command sender must be able to see the logger output is now broken, since the command sender can receive output separately from the logs.
In the future, it might be desirable to send the console command output to stderr instead of stdout, so that stdout can be silenced while still allowing commands to be used.

this resolves many security issues, as well as removing a ton of boilerplate code.
It may be desirable to react to permission denied; this can be done by overriding Command->testPermission(), or by using setPermissionMessage() to set a custom permission denied message.
this resolves a range of issues with quoted arguments when using placeholders, as well as improving performance (no redundant combine -> re-parse needed).
this time, without breaking eval commands ... stripslashes likes to strip ALL backslashes, whether they are actually escaping something or not, which is super annoying.
I've stuck to only doing this in the places where I'm sure we should never get false back. Other places I'm less sure of (and I found more bugs along the way).
