In that case there are two solutions:
1. make qemu the controlling process of the pty (this has the
disadvantage of QEMU being quit when the pty is closed)
2. create a timer polling every eg 100ms to check if the winsize has
changed

I would go with the second approach then and implement the timer as a
g_source. Or are there other timer mechanisms I should use instead?
