Description

͏    Extended from: ​https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/10998

͏    The output without coloring effectively loses significant information (the output type: i.e. "warning", "error" etc.).
͏    A simple text description prepending the relevant line [1] would be preferable:
͏    "W/" - "warning"
͏    "E/" - "error"
͏    "D/" - "debug"
͏    "T/" - "trace"

͏    Without the verbosity and unfitness of ͏"-v level" alike.
͏    And may make use of the Logcat highlighter.

[ [1]
͏    For multi-line output: prepending only once.
͏    E.g.
[[
D/Transform tree:
͏    ...
]] ]

[ [2]
͏    "I/" - "info" is excessive.
͏    Unsure if "V/" - "verbose" should exist: mostly indistinguishable from "debug". ]

͏    Maybe "E/ " alike looks better?
͏    E.g. "E/ I/O Error!"

͏    Not for rough Logcat compatibility...
͏    Probably "E: " alike preferable?
