Use a default name #79

If you omit the name attribute in the front matter of gatorgrader.yml, GatorGradle will fail.

It would be helpful if GatorGradle would instead use a default name when one is not provided, such as the name of the folder that contains the config folder. This would be particularly helpful for those who commonly forget to update the name attribute when creating new assignments 😬 since the name in the resultant message can sometimes confuse students when it doesn't match the current assignment. It'd be great to just not have to set a name.

This will be solved by GatorGrade, GatorGradle's successor.
