When loading dendrogram, make it clearer which dataset is image/cube #659

I had a file called dendrogram.hdf5 that I read in to glue, so it was very confusing for the two datasets created to be called Dendrogram and dendrogram :) Maybe we could add [image] or [cube] as appropriate after the actual gridded data, or somehow make it more obvious.

Just an FYI: We have a custom loader that will read all extensions from a FITS files, grouping extensions of same shape into distinct Data objects. Currently these are labeled as [S1xS2xS3...] indicating the shape of the corresponding Components. This allows for both different dimensionality and, for like dimensionality, different sizes.
