Colored text does not work for world names.

Ever since the UI of the main menu got updated, colored text stopped working. The character still works just fine for signs and such, it's just that the world select screen doesn't have the code for it. The symbol always used to work for all kinds of text before this change.

How to replicate:

  1. Create any world.

  2. Rename it to any text of your liking and put the character “§” along with any number, no spaces needed.

  3. Load the world and view it from a different device, or let a trusted person add you so that they can see the world.

Expected results:

The text should be displayed in a different color depending on the number you've put.

Actual results:

The character does not get read at all, resulting in the whole thing appearing as plain regular text.

Since this affects the character itself and not just the color, this means that italic and bold text are also impossible. (§l and §o)
