`workbench.startupEditor` should support opening a terminal in editor area

See original GitHub issue

I use VS Code as my primary terminal emulator. The first thing I do when opening it is usually to run the workbench.action.createTerminalEditor command so that I can start navigating around, and then using code . to open a project. It would be great if the workbench.startupEditor supported opening a terminal in the editor area.

@Tyriar Going to need help from the terminal side of things here. I have created https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/commit/de17d3c02bcba93522be51ce575f2c8ce40ea6a2 but it does not open a terminal due to the fact that you cannot pass in a “untitled” terminal and have one created. I tried to make an arbitrary resource but no terminal is opened

@Tyriar Sorry misread the issue and thought this was talking about the getting started startup editor that was default. Yes we can do this
