Summary0004363: standalone taler bank server shows up as 'python' in "ps ax"
DescriptionYes, I know it is actually 'python' running here, but one _can_ modify what shows up in 'ps' by _writing_ to 'argv[0]' (or passing proper values in a syscall to exec()).

This would be nice as we could make the process show up as 'taler-bank-httpd' instead of 'python manage.py runserver --noreload 8080' which nobody would naturally understand as being related to 'Taler'.

Steps To ReproduceRun

$ taler-bank-manage --bareserver 8080
$ ps ax | grep 8080
