Fixes #929
Fixes #311 (afaict)
Instead of spawning the requested program directly with Vte (which automatically creates a shell to run it in), we create the shell as usual and then feed the command in as if typed at the commandline. This leads to more predictable results and the shell does not exit with its child.
It is also now possible to run a sequence of commands in the same tab without using a script by separating them with semi-colons and enclosing in quotes:
io.elementary.terminal -e "command1;command2;command3"This PR arises from the discussion at #926
