## Message

```
Read remote shell config when creating a terminal shell (#61451)

# Objective

- Makes shell for remote configurable.
- fixes #35226 

## Solution

- Adds rpc so client can retrieve terminal settings from remote server
- Vibe coded with codex Sol, I did my best to review it and make sure
it's the minimal changes.
- Added terminal dependency to remote_server, rather than a larger
change (e.g. adding something to project to expose terminal shell
setting to remote_server)

## Testing

- Tested and works Windows client / linux remote server

## Self-Review Checklist:

- [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability
- [x] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments
- [x] Tests cover the new/changed behavior
- [ ] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable


---

Release Notes:

- Added support for terminal.shell in remote sessions
