Fixes #14046

Add support for program parameter in attach configurations to attach to processes by executable name, similar to LLDB extension.

Example:

json
{
"type": "cppvsdbg",
"request": "attach",
"program": "myprogram.exe"
}
Automatically finds matching process, prompts if multiple matches. Backward compatible with existing processId configurations.
