Allow setting qemu process name v2

Set the Linux process name to the name argument specified with name. I find
this useful to see which guests are taking CPU time in top.

This doesn't affect ps, which checks argv[0], but rewriting the
environment uses much more code, so I only used this simple way.

v2: Use separate process= argument, no prefixes.

Sets the @var{name} of the guest.
This name will be displayed in the SDL window caption.
The @var{name} will also be used for the VNC server.
Also optionally set the top visible process name in Linux.
