Unfortunately, upstream for gnome-terminal and vte doesn't care to
provide NEWS files.

I said that gnome-terminal and vte hadn't changed much in the 3.24 cycle but 
there were changes in the 3.22 (0.46) cycle
- Add systemd user service
- Add Detach Terminal action to tab context menu (this is important because the 
ability to drag a tab out of a window was dropped in a 3.20 bug fix update but 
because of string freeze, this wasn't added until 3.22)
- Add "gnome-terminal --preferences" to allow changing preferences if you 
somehow managed to break something in settings so that you can't launch 
gnome-terminal normally
- a crash fix in the gnome-shell search provider 
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-terminal/commit/?id=777e66d
- Various appstream metadata updates

3.24, vte 0.48
- async spawning https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-terminal/commit/?id=d4e25a57
- There's this GNOME initiative to use "fancy quotes", even for command line 
output so some strings were changed for that.

Here's the new vte symbols for 0.46 and 0.48
