In the old tool, names were being assigned to user pools, identity pools, and s3 buckets. This resulted in escape hatches being generated in the backend.ts file during migration. However, these names aren't needed to be set. User pools use ids as their primary identifier. Cloudformation auto-names s3 buckets if a custom name isn't provided.
Therefore, in this pr, I remove AMPLIFY_GEN_1_ENV_NAME logic and resource name assignments from the codegen backend synthesizer. This allows gen2 resources to naturally name themselves. The refactor step will handle resource mapping between Gen 1 and Gen 2 stacks.
The main impact of this pr is to improve user experience on running 'generate'.
