[SA] Add option to rename space platforms

[Hares]

TL;DR

It is impossible to rename a platform after it is created.

What?

It is impossible to rename a platform after it is created. Until it is deployed, you can delete the "ghost" platform and create a new one, but after it is created there's no way to change the name.

Why?

Multiple reasons to rename a platform after its creation:

1. Fixing a typo after noticing one
2. Re-purposing the platform
3. Changing the name-generation logic on your system (i.e., "Nauvis Orbit" -> "Space Science #1")
4. Changing the locale and changing its name to match the new one

You can rename it in the hub:

Not intuitively. You can delete it from the Remote View surface manager but rename it here.

And !! You can even order them. However, its only based upon the naming convention .

I agree, I had thought it was impossible. Double clicking on the platform in the surfaces list or adding an edit button that appears when hovering over its name seems like a good solution. Only being able to rename it from the hub was unintuitive to me.

Not to invalidate your perspective at all, but renaming it from anywhere else would be unintuitive to me. Otherwise I'd think maybe I'm renaming the shortcut.
