Description
@shimwell aptly noted that user-specified names for Mesh objects are present in the Python API, but aren't written to XML or HDF5. This PR addresses that problem. There's also some refactoring so that common object information I/O occurs in the base classes on both the Python and C++ to reduce code duplication.
Some tests have been added to make sure this data is round-tripped properly to and from the XML and HDF5 formats.
Fixes #3213
