Highlight current call module and initial function call in information in supervision tree. #78

I think it is very common to try find gen_ process in supervision try. I think it could be good idea to expose more current_function.module and initialCall.

It would be much easier to find GenServer which runs callbacks from xxx module if after clicked they above PID there would be something like gen_server | Elixir.Something.XXX

There are some plans to improve supervision tree a lot but it requires library shift. I was already thinking about it and even created proof of concept ( #55 ) but what I have to do is to create something myself from the ground up (using things like d3 force layout) which will allow us to adjust it maximally to out needs.
