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.
