format-patch: explicitly switch off color when writing to files
We rely on the auto-detection ("is stdout a terminal?") to determine
whether to use color in the output of format-patch or not. That happens
to work because we freopen() stdout when redirecting the output to files.
However, we are about to fix that work-around, in which case the
auto-detection has no chance to guess whether to use color or not.
But then, we do not need to guess to begin with. We know that we do not
want to use ANSI color sequences in the output files. So let's just be
explicit about our wishes.
