Currently the environment handling for terminals is inconsistent. There
are two fixes here:
a) Ensure the environment is setup before all oe.terminal call
b) Actually set the environment before the spawn calls since we need
variables like DISPLAY when the commands are being executed, not just
within the terminal environment. If this doesn't happen, DISPLAY can end
up not set with the errors that brings with it when trying to run X
commands.

This should resolve the devshell issue people are seeing.

In the new implementation, each known terminal is defined as a class in
oe.terminal, as a subclass of bb.process.Popen. terminal.bbclass wraps this
functionality, providing the metadata pieces. It obeys the OE_TERMINAL
variable, which is a 'choice' typed variable. This variable may be 'auto',
'none', or any of the names of the defined terminals.
When using 'auto', or requesting an unsupported terminal, we attempt to spawn
them in priority order until we get one that's available on this system (and
in the case of the X terminals, has DISPLAY defined). The 'none' value is
used when we're doing things like automated builds, and want to ensure that no
terminal is *ever* spawned, under any circumstances.
Current available terminals:
gnome
konsole
xterm
rxvt
screen
