Description 

Layer names inthe WMS capabilities should be unique, but this is not a 
requirement in MapServer.

FIX: Scan the map file (in memory) after it's loaded to add an index to layer 
names that are repeated more than once.

Fixed.  Duplicate layer names will be renamed with a unique number at the end.

Note the fix is local to mapwms.c and does NOT affect the other parts of 
MapServer like the mapserv CGI.
