Convert process to tuple.

Convert process to tuple that looks like the legacy structure of processes, for potential users who inspected processes directly.

This was only an accidental feature, and will be removed. If you need to remember what processes were added to a process monitor, keep track of that when they are added. The process list inside the process monitor is no longer a public API.

This allows changing the internal structure of the process list, when warranted by bug fixes or additional features.

Returns
tuple representation of process
args: list = (source)
command-line arguments (including name of command as first one)
cwd: str = (source)
initial working directory for process or None (which means inherit cwd)
env: dict = (source)
environment for process
gid: int = (source)
group-id to run process as, or None (which means inherit gid)
uid: int = (source)
user-id to run process as, or None (which means inherit uid)
