Description
While investigating issues with https://github.com/cake-build/cake/pull/3240, I temporarily enabled `Debug/Diagnostic` logging for the integration tests, during which the log rendering is far too dark and becomes unreadable in some environments.
GitHub Actions run [2052071902](https://github.com/cake-build/cake/runs/2052071902?check_suite_focus=true#step:8:1383):

Azure Pipelines build [17082](https://dev.azure.com/cake-build/Cake/_build/results?buildId=17082&view=logs&j=00af5505-930d-50dd-3844-b167e8b4bb13&t=0fadbdea-3d1d-5635-586e-134b382e6b33&l=1380):

Here's another screenshot of a normal GitHub Actions run showing the color spectrum for different `LogLevel/Verbosity`:

And the same for a normal Azure Pipelines build:

Finally, I've seen similar problems when building local in WSL.

Research direction
The issue names no source file or test entry point. Start by reproducing Debug/Diagnostic logging in the referenced GitHub Actions or Azure Pipelines runs, then compare the rendered output with local WSL output; done means the diagnostic text is readable across those environments.
