run: provide a name for the class if there isn't one already

Javi Merino requested to merge github/fork/JaviMerino/no_name_in_Base into master

A number of trace classes are called as the trace event they parse. Unsurprisingly, the unique_word is the trace event name. Instead of repeating the same thing over and over, let register_class() assign a name to a class it's registering based on the unique_word if it doesn't have a name.

This needs to be a class variable that's set before the class is instantiated (Run.register_class() needs it). So you can't set it in Base's constructor. You can't set it in DynamicTypeFactory either because not every Base class uses that. This looks like a good compromise and remove some redundant code.
