Fix PowerShell $PID variable conflict in start-lemonade.ps1 (#331)

## Summary
Fixes CI test failure on machines with stricter PowerShell
configurations by renaming a variable that conflicted with PowerShell's
read-only `$PID` automatic variable.

## Problem
The lemonade smoke test was failing on one specific machine with:
```
Error: Cannot overwrite variable PID because it is read-only or constant.
```

The script used `$pid` (line 69) to store a process ID during port
availability checking. PowerShell's `$PID` is a read-only automatic
variable (current process ID), and PowerShell variable names are
case-insensitive, so `$pid` and `$PID` refer to the same variable.

## Solution
Renamed `$pid` → `$processId` to avoid the conflict.

## Testing
- [x] Local testing: Script runs without errors
- [x] CI testing: Needs verification on stx-test machine

## Impact
- Low risk: Simple variable rename in error handling code
- Fixes intermittent CI failures on machines with stricter PowerShell
enforcement
- No functional changes to the script behavior
