splitting terminal should not reset font size

[giuspe]

(this is somehow halfway between a feature and a bug)

the problem

whenever I split a terminal tab (horizontally or vertically) the font size of all split spaces gets reset to default font size.

the behaviour is the same when splitting via keyboard or using the right-click menu.

the behaviour doesn't happen when closing a previously created split space.

how to reproduce

1. open a new terminal tab (or reuse an already opened one)
2. adjust font size (CTRL + / CTRL -) changing from default
3. split the terminal tab

expected result

the terminal tab is split, no other changes are applied.

actual result

the terminal tab is split and font size is reset to default (as defined in settings) for all terminal tab sections
