Name datasets by species, not ID #89

Researchers may need to combine BacDive downloads with data from other sources. Assuming they use the species name for that, BacDiveR should maybe name the datasets by that, rather than by the bacdive_id, as #47 introduced.

No, this makes little sense, because there may be many strain datasets per species (epithet).
