Terminal and Terminal Font detection

#252 added support for displaying the terminal emulator in use as well as the font the terminal emulator is currently using.
Terminal detection works by checking the value of $TERM_PROGRAM.
Terminal detection works by recursively checking parent processes until the result
isn't $SHELL, *sh, screen or tmux.
This method of detection doesn't work with tmux as the parent processes aren't
the current shell or the terminal emulator.
Font detection works by parsing the terminal emulator's config file.
