Description of the new feature/enhancement

We want to see how the "widthxheight" appears while we resize a Terminal window. For example, if we resized a Terminal window, the box in the center would say "120x43"; if we resized it again, the same thing would say "80x50".

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Add "Show column and row size when resizing a Terminal window" in Terminal Settings->Appearance.
