Offer a way to set a custom application name #19

Per request from @ntl, it would be helpful if a user can supply names to running ruby processes so that in infrastructure view, the processes could be more easily identifiable. Non-specific, but this is the view in question:

If a user were to supply a custom process name, then that name would somehow take precedence over what is currently displayed or displayed alongside - TBD

This can now be done via environment variable INSTANA_SERVICE_NAME. Added in #121
