Console window state not restored on startup if console.show() is used

[alankilborn]

#312 introduced persistence of the console window. I think that code has problems.

---

Try this user startup.py:

try:
    
    startup_already_ran
    print('NOT running startup things a second time')

except:

    startup_already_ran = True
    print('running startup things...')

    console.show()

(note that the try/except wrapper is because of this other bug: #339 )

Exit Notepad++ with the console window showing and restart. At restart the console window will NOT be shown. Removing the console.show() line in the script results in correct persistence behavior of the console window.

Seems at startup console.show() behaves more like toggling. Needs to be further checked why.
