Clients can merge the line style (which is typically a background color) with the token styles (typically a foreground color).

Done. Note that we still need to set `AddedLine.IsInactive` appropriately. I did that in the lambda, which feels like a strange thing for an `erase_if` predicate to do. The alternative would be doing a `count_if` first (but then we're looping over the tokens twice).
