Description
### Describe your idea/feature/enhancement
When using SAM on Windows after installing it using the MSI installer, I would like to see the text output to be in color, rather than black and white.
### Proposal
According to the `click` docs (https://click.palletsprojects.com/en/7.x/utils/#ansi-colors), adding `colorama` as a dependency should turn on colored output.
If I install the `aws-sam-cli` and `colorama` packages via pip, the text output is colorful. I therefore believe adding it as a dependency so that it's packaged when the Windows Installer is built should make the text output colorful.
