Motivation and Context

This PR addresses a few things that I've wanted to take care of for a while, as well as a little bit of groundwork for future PRs. All of these changes are transparent and should have no impact on current Sim execution.

• Rename the base classes for the attributes and the managers to be more in line with naming conventions elsewhere in the code base.
• Add a Configuration comparison override.
• Add the ability to check for duplicate Configurations before adding them as Subconfigs on demand.
• Address a rare edge-case issue during attributes registration where the name that the attributes is saved with can potentially not be the name that is passed to the (child-class-specific) post-registration processing.

How Has This Been Tested

Locally C and python tests pass
