+Make opening files/folders from the terminal only open in the current instance
+
+Previously they would open in every code-server tab/window.
+
+To test:
+
+1. Run code-server
+2. Open code-server
+3. Open terminal
+4. Open another code-server window
+5. Run code-server with a file or directory argument
+
+The file or directory should only open from the instance attached to that
+terminal.
