patch 8.0.0616: not always setting 'background' correctly after :hi Normal

Problem:    When setting the cterm background with ":hi Normal" the value of
            'background' may be set wrongly.
Solution:   Check that the color is less than 16.  Don't set 'background' when
            it was set explicitly. (Lemonboy, closes #1710)
