That side effect can be avoided at no cost in 256-color mode, where
there is enough space to create a hidden cube/pallete for the dynamic
24-bit colors: when USE_256_COLORS==1, RS_colorMask=511 which is much
larger than maxTermCOLOR =~ 260.

The same for 88-color mode, if we can take 1 bit from fonts to colors.
