Ingest File Names

IRIS ingest data for a volume scan is stored on disk in multiple files.

The ingest summary file name is the prefix with a trailing ".", but without the suffix.

Each sweep and data type is stored in a separate file.

These files must be named correctly, siris deletes any with an incorrect name. If the two-digit year is less than 50, it means add 2000, otherwise add 1900.
