Description

### Description of the new feature

I'm using GlazeWM, which is a tiling window manager. It's possible to exclude certain applications based on window title or class. I would like to exclude only quake console, but the regular window terminal and wt quake console have the same window title and class

### Proposed technical implementation details

Separate window title and/or class for quake console.

Research direction

Start by tracing where Windows Terminal creates and assigns window titles and classes for the quake console versus regular terminal windows. Define a distinct title or class that GlazeWM can target, then verify that regular and quake consoles remain distinguishable.
