The `WARN` and `ERR_PNPM_*` labels in pnpm's output relied entirely on a colored background to stand out from the surrounding text. In terminals without color — `NO_COLOR` set, output piped, dumb terminals — the badge collapsed into bare `WARN` / `ERR_PNPM_FOO` and became hard to spot inside the message. This PR wraps each label in brackets (`[WARN]`, `[ERR_PNPM_FOO]`, `[ERROR]`). The bracket characters are painted in the same color as the badge background, so in a color-capable terminal they appear as plain padding inside the colored badge — the rendering matches what we had before. When ANSI is stripped the brackets reappear as ordinary text, giving the label a clear delimiter.

Style Guide
- Never use blue or grey as font color as they are hard to read in many consoles.
- Use dim instead of grey
- Use cyan bright instead of blue
- Don't hide the CLI cursor. (It is easier to never hide but it is really needed only when scripts are running.)
- Don't use green and yellow to distinct something.
