import {getColorDepth} from 'tty'

[arcanis]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The getColorDepth and hasColors functions are currently attached to the tty.WriteStream prototype, even though they seem fairly standalone (their result depends on the env, not the stream). As a result, accessing them "legally" (without extracting them from the prototype) isn't possible when process.stdout & co aren't proper ttys.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be useful to be able to just import getColorDepth & friends from tty.

If we consider making getColorDepth and hasColors directly a part of the tty module, I feel it will potentially make sense to depreciate tty.WriteStream.getColorDepth and tty.WriteStream.hasColors

EDIT: There is a reason why this cannot be achieved for now as meantioned in the PR
