Issue Type: Bug

The terminal renders powerline characters incorrectly when starting a terminal.

Characters look like this:

Screenshot

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open Visual Studio Code
  2. Open the integrated terminal

By the way, when you change the terminal font to another font, then back to the previous front, the terminal starts to render correctly, but you need to do this every time you open an integrated terminal.

  1. Open terminal
  2. Open settings (JSON)
  3. Update the terminal.integrated.fontFamily setting:
  4. You read: terminal.integrated.fontFamily = "Hack, monospace"
  5. Rewrite to: terminal.integrated.fontFamily = "monospace"
  6. Save
  7. Rewrite to: terminal.integrated.fontFamily = "Hack, monospace"
  8. Save
  9. Terminal renders correctly

This is very similar to issue #120129, and I suspect it's for the same reason: the webgl renderer, which is now the default.
