startup_command is sent too early, even when zsh is not ready to receive it #188

What happened?

When I use startup_command & zsh, I expected Sesh to send the command when zsh is ready to receive it but the command is sent too early!

I must admit, this issue is partly due to my zsh taking 1 second to load. While I am currently profiling my zsh to improve its performance, it would be beneficial if Sesh could offer a mechanism to wait for the shell to fully initialize. This way, users would not need to individually optimize their zsh startup time.

I previously faced a similar situation with tmuxp, and the solution was adding a 0.5s delay before executing the command, as suggested by a tmuxp user.

I think it's an important improvement to wait for the shell to load.

I'm wondering if under-the-hood we could use $SHELL to execute the function independently of the tmux window loading.

I'll have to experiment with it and get back to you, thanks for the info.
