This patch attempts to improve transaction summary appearance with a few
tweaks:
- String changes to
  * Better inform the user
  * Look more visually appealing
- Using a hint of colour when colours are enabled to
  * Bring focus to the names of the packages being upgraded
  * Make it clear what operation is being taken on a package
