  1. Add a note about process.title 

    Many users assume the act of assigning a value to `process.title` will update the name of their application in apps like macOS Activity Monitor or Windows Services Manager. This has worked in the past, but fails in some versions of Node.js (see #28945). Ultimately developers are left confused, especially when it works in one version of Node.js and not another. Given the recurring nature and complexity of the underlying problem, it does not seem like a resolvable problem. This note clarifies the source of the problem, sets developer expectations, and closes #34280.
