Description of the new feature

how do you set a new windows terminal window to be maximized on launch?
vscode has a "window.newWindowDimensions": "maximized" setting that works but i cannot find the equivalent in windows terminal

source: https://aka.ms/terminal-profiles-schema

Proposed technical implementation details

create the setting in (AppData/Local/Packages/WindowsTerminal/LocalState)/settings.json
