feat: rename process_name to name in ProcessInfo and related utilities

[JeanExtreme002]

Summary

Simplify the public API by removing the redundant process_ prefix from several identifiers.

Changes

• ProcessInfo.process_name → ProcessInfo.name
• ProcessInfo.set_process_name() → ProcessInfo.set_name()
• get_process_ids_by_process_name() → get_process_ids_by_name()
• get_process_id_by_process_name() → get_process_id_by_name()

All call-sites across the linux, macOS, win32 and app layers have been updated, along with the documentation and test suite.

Pull request overview

This PR simplifies the public API by removing the redundant process_ prefix from process-name-related identifiers, primarily switching to name across ProcessInfo, lookup utilities, and OpenProcess construction. It also updates cross-platform backends, the GUI dialog, tests, and documentation to use the new naming.

Changes:

• Renames ProcessInfo.process_name/set_process_name() to name/set_name(), and updates AbstractProcess + OS-specific process constructors accordingly.
• Renames lookup helpers to get_process_id(s)_by_name() and updates call sites/tests.
• Updates user-facing docs and README examples to use OpenProcess(name=...).

• The loop variable name shadows the function parameter name, and process_name_cmp still uses the old identifier. This makes the function harder to read and reason about (especially with case-folding and substring matching). Rename the variables to avoid shadowing and keep the terminology consistent with the new API.

    if not case_sensitive:
        process_name_cmp = name.casefold()
    else:
        process_name_cmp = name

    matches: List[int] = []

    for pid, name in _iter_processes():
        name = name or ""

• In get_process_ids_by_name, the loop variable name shadows the function argument name, which makes the logic harder to follow and is easy to misuse in future edits. Rename the per-row variable to avoid shadowing (e.g., proc_name).

    matches: List[int] = []

    for pid, name in _iter_processes():
        name = name or ""
        name_cmp = name if case_sensitive else name.casefold()
