Enhance Windows installer with parent process ID handling for improved update reliability

- Introduced a new variable to capture the parent process ID, allowing the installer to wait for the exact updater process instead of relying on executable names.
- Updated the `restartFarmControlAfterUpdate` function to handle the new parent PID, ensuring a more reliable shutdown of the Farm Control application during updates.
- Modified the `launchWindowsInstaller` function to pass the current process ID as an argument, enhancing the installer’s ability to manage application restarts effectively.
