Show the process ID in the call stack on Windows #9065

Not sure if the same process ID is applicable to Linux/Mac -- I could check, but I mostly want it for Windows.

I originally filed this on VS Code, but they said: "showing the process ID in the CALL STACK view as part of the session label or thread label is the recommended way (since there is no other place where to show it and since VS Code knows nothing about processes).".

It's available when debugging with Visual Studio 2022.

When I initially use the C/C++ debugger to attach to a process, it shows the process ID in the dropdown, but then I can't remember it and then I need to check later on which process ID I'm attached to and it doesn't show me in the UI (e.g. there are 3 such processes running and I want to make sure I'm attached to the one using 100% CPU and not one of the other 2).
