Subject: [PATCH] fix(corekit): give unnamed ListField, PayloadField and
 SchemaField a default name (#1491)

ListField.__init__, PayloadField.__init__ and SchemaField.__init__ set no
_name, so .name on an unnamed instance -- and on OptionField and its
subclasses -- raised AttributeError. Default it with the hasattr idiom
FieldBase and Field already use, giving <list>, <option>, <chunklist>,
<payload>, <schema>, and so on.
