This PR adds support for multiple xterms in one notebook. They can't all work at once - I couldn't manage to get that working - but it means if you have two cells with %xterm in them, then you can run one, use the terminal a bit, then run the other. When you run the second one, the first terminal will automatically close, and the second one will become active.

I've also added a manual 'close' button to the terminal interface.

This works particularly well with #5 and in the context of notebook-based documentation/training. You can have a paragraph of explanation, then a cell with %xterm command-to-run --args in it. The user can run that and interact with the terminal, then move on to more paragraphs of explanation below, and then another %xterm different-command --args cell, which they can also run to interact with that terminal.
