Description

* flake8-html version: master
* Python version: Python 3.6
* Operating System: Mac OSX

### Description

`format=html` parameter is incompatible with the [flake8-colors](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/flake8-colors/0.1.6) package (which also has a format parameter for coloured output). Would it be possible to change this parameter name to allow both plugin's to work side by side?

Research direction

Start by locating where the `format=html` option is declared and how the HTML report entry point consumes it. Determine a non-conflicting option name that still allows flake8-html and flake8-colors to run together, then verify that HTML report generation remains available and the compatibility case is covered.
