change the value $ShellId to powershell rather than Microsoft.PowerShell

PS C:\> $PSVersionTable

This would be breaking change, from what I can tell, because $ShellID is used to derive configuration paths / settings from, notably the (current-host) $PROFILE path(s). (The distinction between the editions is in the parent directory name).

Also, PS Core is still _Microsoft_ PowerShell, just not _Windows_ PowerShell anymore.

To distinguish between the editions you have $PSVersionTable.Edition and $IsCoreCLR.
