cool-retro-term -T myretrosession sets window name to 'myretrosession'

This is useful especially for people who rely on wmctrl to change windows, now I
can do wmctrl -a myretrocession to focus on cool-retro-term.

-T was chosen since it matches classic xterm(1) and other terminal emulators

Please have in mind I've never done any QT/Javascript/QML/C++, this code might be full of bad practices.

Having said that, I really need this since I run multiple terminals, each with different name, and switch them on the keyboard with wmctrl.
