So update the colorized ls port. "I use a colourised ls day to day"
doesn't sound like a convincing argument to me.
I use zsh day to day. I think we should import it in the base system.
After all, many peolple use it, and those who don't like it can simply
not start it. As an added bonus, it doesn't even make an existing,
frequently used, program bigger since it's an entirely new executable.

I don't see why zsh shouldn't be added, it just adds a bit of new source
to the source tree.
