Summary: Name collisions in Tallow. Guid issue

Initial Comment:
If you use Tallow to get selfreg information for two
different dlls you get name collision about
'component0' and etc after merging object files or
library files with help of Light.
Simple solution with /prefix command line options is
proposed to generated names with user-defined prefix
e.g. myprefix.file0.
Also Guid attribute is missed for components generated
by Tallow. It leads to situation when files and
(probably) registry entries are not deleted during
uninstallation.
Simple solution with /guid command line option is
proposed to let user generate new guid for
Tallow-generated components

This should be fixed in heat.  Tallow will not be fixed
since its being replaced by heat.

Agreed - the current colliding behavior is pretty annoying.
