Taskname optional suffix

[maddenp-noaa]

Synopsis

Make the suffix argument to Asset.taskname() optional. In an application using uwtools, I found it convenient to call this method to get a prefix to use in custom log messages so that they look nice in line with log messages coming from the driver itself. Currently I have to do taskname(""); with this change, that call can just be .taskname().
