Description

Hello

I have made a terminal in lua
and I wanted to add tabs but I can not because the spawn_async of vte does not work with lgi,I did some tests and I found that the problem is with spawn_async that makes the segmentation program fault

I just wanted to know if there is any way to solve it :)

Thanks for your work on LGI ❤️
Thank You!

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported segmentation fault with Lua, LGI, and Vte.Terminal.spawn_async in the terminal-with-tabs example described in the issue. Trace the spawn_async call through LGI and VTE to identify the failure; done means the call no longer crashes and the terminal can create tabs.
