AFAICS, gnome-terminal definitely *doesn't* support the italic SGR, at
least with versions as recent as 2.26.2. The italic SGR is 3, and
echo -e "\e[3mhello\e[m"
in bash definitely doesn't produce italics for me. And, a quick
sourcedive shows it to be missing from the switch in libvte's
vteseq.c:vte_sequence_handler_character_attributes(), which skips from
2 (dim) to 4 (underline).
