Powershell: kill still an alias of Stop-Process on *nix

Just tried kill on macOS and it's an alias of Stop-Process. I thought all the aliases masking native utils were taken out?

@PowerShell/powershell-committee agrees we should remove this alias as it's an oversight and not intentional for this alias to be there

Removing this would be a breaking change.
See https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell-RFC/pull/129
