Summary of the Pull Request

Adds support for "commandline mode" to the command palette.
cmdpal-commandline-mode

This allows the user to start typing a wt.exe commandline directly in the command palette, to run that commandline directly in the current window. This allows the user input something like > nt -p Ubuntu ; sp -p ssh and open up a new tab and split it in the current window.
