bug: Blocksize is incorrect, and the "bl" color definition is not applied.

[sultan-ov]

I set the "bl" (a file’s number of blocks) color via EZA_COLORS, but it isn't applied. The "Blocksize" column actually uses the "sn" (the numbers of a file’s size) color definition. The "Blocksize" column displays something other than the number of blocks, something resembling the file size.

Installation method?

❯ cargo install --locked eza

The version of eza being used?

❯ eza --version
v0.23.4 [+git]

The command-line arguments you are using?

❯ eza -lS

Your shell and terminal?

❯ zsh --version; alacritty --version
zsh 5.9 (x86_64-generic-linux-gnu)
alacritty 0.16.0-dev (84377a45)

Your operating system?

❯ swupd info
Distribution:      Clear Linux OS
Installed version: 43760

It looks like there is a misunderstanding: the "Blocksize" column shows the size taken by the N blocks used for the file, but it does NOT show N, the number of blocks. Only the total size of all of those blocks.
And because it's a filesize it uses the same colors as the normal "Size" column.

Looking at the code, the bl color option is put into blocks field in the theme, but it's not used anywhere. 👀🤔

And the -S option in ls actually shows the number of blocks, so maybe we're missing an actual --blocks param (that -S should be the short form of).

Thanks for the explanation @bew .
I migrated from exa, look at the output:

In some update, eza start display "size of allocated file system blocks" instead of "number of file system blocks." I find this inconvenient; it's the same as looking at the file size. So the blocksize column practically duplicates the previous column.
