Olivier Perret c8403624a7 Expose a 'terminal' command for the various windowing systems
It allows plugins to create generic terminal using the user's preferred windowing system
For example, it can be used to run fzf, gdb or simply a shell.

* 'new' commands are refactored to simply use the 'terminal' one
* style and docstrings has been unified
* all windowing systems go through "sh -c" for consistency purposes, even if unnecessary
