#to_branch_name now uses the iid as postfix

Zeger-Jan van de Weg requested to merge issue-branch-iid-postfix into master

Given the branch name 'mep-mep' with an iid being 1, the current way, master's way, would yield a branch name of 1-mep-mep. The problem for larger projects however would be that a developer might forget what iid the issue was.

When this developer would try to tab complete it would:

  • Or result in 20+ branches possibly
  • Or start with the wrong digit, try again with digit++
    • Would see 20 branches, repeat

Thus the obvious way of solving this is letting the dev tab complete on the issue title, which is easier to remember.

@DouweM Should this be labelled pick-in-master?
