Getter for process id and predicate to determine if process is running #7

Adding process::id(), that returns the pid. Also process::running() indicates if the process is currently running (or a zombie). running() is very convenient but i'm not sure if it's useful in the scope of this library.

There is a typo in the comment for process::id() (an A is on the second line).
process::running() should have the if-else branch simplified to just be
```
return ::kill(pid_, 0) == 0;
```

Sorry for the mess.
