Use same code for setting up cli/non-cli formatter

A method _create_formatter was introduced that is used for both the
log_cli_formatter and the log_formatter.

Consequences of this commit are:
* Captured logs that are output for each failing test are formatted
  using the ColoredLevelFromatter.
* The formatter used for writing to a file still uses the non-colored
  logging.Formatter class.

+Captured logs that are output for each failing test are formatted using the
+ColoredLevelFromatter.  As a consequence caplog.text contains the ANSI
+escape sequences used for coloring the level names now.
