      <![CDATA[
      PERF: Change default index input output name's prefix to just &quot;_&quot;

      Renamed default index i/os&apos; prefix from &quot;IndexedDataObject&quot; to just &quot;_&quot;
      followed by the index number.

      There are two motivation for this: 1) The prior approach required each
      comparison done in the named map to compare 17 chars to get to the
      number, which is inefficient. 2) With the introduction on the global
      variable of these name, shortening the name reduces the ( by a small
      amount ) the foot print of the variable.

      This change in name only effects the protected interface of the
      ProcessObject. A change would only need to be made to a writen
      filter if it mixed using index and named inputs or outpus to
      acces a single data object.
