Description
Currently (7.2.0.dev264+g6ad32a9c5), the console heading for some sections is colorized ('warnings', 'short test summary info'); while other sections are not (ERRORS, FAILURES, PASSES, and 'rerun test summary info' if the pytest-rerunfailures plugin is installed). Also, the 'test session starts' and 'short test summary info' sections are in bold, while none of the others are.
Enhancement request is to standardize ANSI markup for the various sections. If it were up to me, I would simply add colors to the section headings that are not colored: PASSES (green), FAILURES (red), ERRORS (yellow).

Research direction
Start by locating the code and tests that render terminal section headings, then compare the ANSI markup used by each section, including the rerun summary when pytest-rerunfailures is installed. Done means the headings use a consistent style and the requested colors for PASSES, FAILURES, and ERRORS are covered by tests.
