Windows terminal session names don't change when launching a shell from the initial shell #30152

Description

@Tyriar

Running cmd.exe inside powershell for example will always show powershell.exe as the terminal session name in the dropdown.

See #29879 (comment) for a possible solution utilizing wmic.exe.
