[OE-core] [PATCH 0/1] tmux new does not take tw commands

This got routed to me because the visible error message says
	Execution of "pseudo /bin/bash" failed

but actually it's nothing to do with pseudo. The real
problem is that the tmux class in terminal.py is producing
a string like:
	'tmux new <args> {command}'

This then gets .format called on it, substituting in a command. If
the comand is "pseudo /bin/bash", this is:
	'tmux new <args> pseudo /bin/bash'
which is a usage error. It would be okay if it were:
	'tmux new <args> "pseudo /bin/bash"'

So add double quotes. Of course, that assumes that <command> never has
double quotes in it... If it does, that may need a fancier solution.

The following changes since commit b4f208f418d18f2a4e78a56bebacef481061d917:
