[ANN] Named Process (on SqueakMap)

Stephen,

Named processes is a long-overdue feature IMHO.  However, I'm a 
little nervous about this being a SqueakMap entry.  For example, 
what about the VM diagnostics to dump a call stack?  Does the 
VM make assumptions about the iv layout of Process; it seems 
like it would have to do so.

Rather than #processName, I would simply use #name (for Dolphin 
compatibility), but that's trivial to do with your efforts installed.
