Current job is not updated in terminal window's title
When I run `xonsh` is using its default settings, the `$TITLE` format string (responsible for setting the terminal window's title) is
```
{current_job:{} | }{user}@{hostname}: {cwd} | xonsh
```
The `current_job` variable in `$TITLE` means that when a foreground job is running, the terminal's title should be updated with the job's command.

For example, suppose my terminal's title is `yaxollum@fedora: ~ | xonsh` when no jobs are running.

When I launch the `cat` command, my terminal's title should be updated to `cat | yaxollum@fedora: ~ | xonsh`. However, under the current `main` version of xonsh, my terminal's title stays unchanged. `git bisect` shows that this was introduced by #4697.

Both this issue and #4034 appear to be related to setting the terminal's title, so I'll try to fix both of them in a PR.
