Not clearing the name any more means that you can't create a new
BlockBackend with the same ID until the hidden BB finally goes away.
As it happens, you already can't do that with drive_add, because we also
keep the ID reserved in the QemuOpts, so it's already broken today.
However, before this patch, you can still use blockdev-add to create a
new BB with the ID of a BB that drive_del removed; after it, you get an
error:
{"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "Device with id 'disk'
already exists"}}
In order to fix this, I suggested on IRC that we view the BB name as
belonging to the monitor reference logically, i.e. we add a name with
monitor_add_blk() (which would get a new ID parameter) and clear it
again in monitor_remove_blk().
