Issue:
Standardize the use of plugins.TypedName as key
As part of #1901, two comments were made with respect to use of `plugins.TypedName`:
- consistently use variable name in plugins (currently both `typedName` and `tn` are used)
- decide on consisten use of `TypedName.Type`, `TypedName.Name` or `TypedName.String()` as the key used for lookups, configruation references, logging, etc.

/kind cleanup

/cc @nirrozenbaum 

Hints from issue comments:
@rohithnarasimha: hi @elevran 
I’d like to take this issue.
can you please assign the issue on me@elevran: /assign @rohithnarasimha 
Can you please handle only the typedName changes for now? Note that #1911 addresses the change in the datalayer package so no need to do that.

We still need to decide on use to type, name, both for keys (cc: @shmuelk @nirrozenbaum)
