This ticket is blocks : TRAC11565, TRAC11818
The lastmodified date in the IDF is a poor proxy for a checksum and in only used in mangling the instrument name in the IDS.
Now we have a ChecksumHelper we should use that, create a SHA1 or MD5 and use that instead in the IDS name.
Change the name mangling to use the checksum instead (including for text in nexus files).
Change the IDF files to remove the date
Change the concepts docs that mention this
Make sure the SNS IDF generator scripts no longer include this
Change the xml schema to remove the need for this field.
