Summary: clone does not name correctly

Initial Comment:
clone should follow all of the naming convensions used in build_region.  It is important that these two tools work in concert.

The command 'clone -i 1 -n 2 reg.r1' will create geometry as follows:

reg.r1
 u solid.s1
 + solid.s1+1
 - solid.s1-1

to

reg.r2
 u solid.s2
 + solid.s21
 - solid.s31

and

reg.r3
 u solid.s3
 + solid.s22
 - solid.s32

It should create

reg.r2
 u solid.s2
 + solid.s2+1
 - solid.s2-1

and

reg.r3
 u solid.s3
 + solid.s3+1
 - solid.s3-1

Message:
Updated the clone command to work with the naming convention used in the
"build_region" tclscript. 

Sean had some neat ideas about using a “naming convention” attribute
in the database. This attribute could be used by tools like "build_region",
"clone" or even "mged"  to enforce, check for conformity or simply aid
users in following a given naming convention. Something for you to think
about for a future feature request.
