Naming of Index Files




I have changed ldbm and db2 backends to do uniform naming of index
files.
This change was triggered by the fact that in some cases we may have
various aliases for a given attribute and even an OID to refer to it.
In addition,
in some cases the software will store indexes in a file named CN.db and
then
try to retrieve it from the file cn.db, which was also a problem.

The change defines an official name for an attribute as follows:

1.-The first type name defined for the attribute in the AttributeType
struc, if
       any.

2.-The OID of the attribute if no names were given to it.
