[opensource-dev] allow display names to be disabled at the parcel level

Due to the number of stores that have already had issues with display names being used to defraud customers, (something that will only get worse the way they were implemented), the number of role play zones that are smaller then sim-sized that do not want to see display names, and the simple sheer number of people on the forums, in groups, at office hours, and elsewhere that want to be able to have their land be display name free, Estate level display name toggling is not good enough.  It needs to be at the parcel level, so every land owner can make their own decision.

For those that argue that it will break user experience, the same has been argued about voice being toggle-able at the parcel level and yet, when that was implemented it did not break user experience significantly.  Please either rework the display names to make it harder to commit fraud and impersonation of existing accounts OR give us the tools to do it ourselves.
