CLIENT GETNAME and CLIENT SETNAME introduced.

Sometimes it is much simpler to debug complex Redis installations if it
is possible to assign clients a name that is displayed in the CLIENT
LIST output.

This is the case, for example, for "leaked" connections. The ability to
provide a name to the client makes it quite trivial to understand what
is the part of the code implementing the client not releasing the
resources appropriately.

Behavior:

    CLIENT SETNAME: set a name for the client, or remove the current
                    name if an empty name is set.
    CLIENT GETNAME: get the current name, or a nil.
    CLIENT LIST: now displays the client name if any.

Thanks to Mark Gravell for pushing this idea forward.
