This property affects safe compat because the ID is what gets preserved
in the save, but it's unfortunately also used as the display name, which
means changing the display name breaks save compat. It also prevents us
from changing display names without breaking faction definitions.
This is the first step in fixing that. The next is adding a separate
display_name property that can be updated without breaking either of
those.
- Add additional naming method to naming.py
- JTACs now use the ALPHA_MILITARY. So first JTAC is called JTAC Alpha, 2nd JTAC is called JTAC Bravo and so on

This allows unique identification across saves. The front-end needs to
be able to differentiate the first carrier in game A and the first
carrier in game B, but because carriers (and other non-airfield CPs) are
assigned IDs sequentially, collisions were to be expected. The front-end
can't tell the difference between a reloaded game and a new turn, so we
need to ensure different IDs across games.
This is a handy cleanup anyway, since callers constructing CPs no longer
need to manually track the CP ID counter.
