Title: Lua-based name generator

This moves the person, planet and starport name generators out of the core into a NameGen Lua library. LuaNameGen has now been changed to a simple interface class that allows various components (ie facegen and sysgen) to call into Lua to get a name out.

More complex planet and starport names included. Once planet composition attributes are exposed to Lua (#859) it'll be possibly to choose names more precisely.

@Brianetta I could use your input on how to do translations for this.
