Add column naming options in the Group By Recipe

By default, when you select any aggregation method on a column in a Group By recipe, the column will be renamed

old name = <column_name>

new name = <column_name_aggregation>

In the output column names part of the recipe you can manually change the column names.

It would be useful to allow the column renaming default to be toggled on and off, so we could choose to keep the column names the same.

    Totally agreed. It arises another major problem. The aggregated part is added to the name in 'Camel Case' which makes unable to read if there is an SQL recipe follwing the aggreation recipe.

    This is particularly helpful on large datasets, with many columns being aggregated where we do not want to manually change all the column names.
