[swfmill] do not set name property on as3 swf instances

[Will]

That doesn't really make sense to me. The placed object is an instance 
of the class, its name has nothing to do with its class. If that were/is 
the case then you would need a class definition for each instance which 
would run counter to the point of using a class and would result in a 
lot of pointless code. no?

In haxe you reiterate the base class definition in the haxe class file, 
not the named instance. like so:

class Foo extends flash.display.MovieClip{}

at least thats working right to me.
