A directory-category for terminal emulators

This is a mostly cosmetical commit, in the sense it doesn't change the contents of any package, but reorganizes the overall Nixpkgs expressions. Terminal emulators are an ubiquitous tool for any Unix user; even the beginners are routinely familiarized to it. And, manifestly, there are many implementations of terminal emulators out there, from those traditionally made in C and C++ to those written in Haskell and Go. Terminal emulators deserve more highlight. This commit does that by creating a category for them.
