This enables VteTerminal to be used to render the text consoles. VteTerminal is
the same widget used by gnome-terminal which means it's VT100 emulation is as
good as they come.

It's also screen reader accessible, supports copy/paste, proper scrolling and
most of the other features you would expect from a terminal widget.

The new code uses VtePty and some functions which were added to
VteTerminal in 2010, so this is a rather new interface:

Add VtePty and adapt the VteTerminal APIs to it

Add VtePty as a GObject holding the info about the PTY. Add new API to
VteTerminal to set a VtePty, and deprecate the old API that takes a FD
to the PTY. Also deprecate the whole of the undocumented _vte_pty_*()
APIs.

Add vte_terminal_fork_command_full() variant that allow providing a
custom child setup function and that returns a GError on failure.

=> It does not work with Debian stable and other "old" distributions.

configure detects GTK+ and VTE, but make fails.
