X2GoSession class - a public API of Python X2Go, handling standalone X2Go
sessions.

This class is normally embedded into the context of an :class:`x2go.client.X2GoClient`
instance, but it is also possible to address an :class:`x2go.session.X2GoSession` directly via this
class.

To launch a session manually from the Python interactive shell, perform these
simple steps::
