Have sockets named after the bone they are created from, instead of "NewSocket"

General Feedback & Requests
1

The odds of using the bone name for the socket is greater than the odds of using “NewSocket”. It would greatly help if the created socket is defaulted to the name of the bone it is created from.

2

You can actually use the socket query API to search for any bone by name without having to create a new socket, so it probably wouldn’t make sense to name them exactly the same as the parent bone. However, naming them like the bone (e.g., BoneNameSocket) seems like a good change, and I’ll throw in a TTP.
