GPKG table referenced by Id instead of layername

Original Redmine Issue: 16902
Affected QGIS version: 2.18.10
Redmine category:data_provider/ogr

---

When you load a geopackage layer via Add Vector Layer, the table is referenced by it's ID
See Layer source in the layer properties, General Tab: my_gpkg.gpkg|layerid=8

This is an issue, because if one does a vacuum on the Geopackage, the layerid might change. In this case, your entire project might loose all layer references.

==
Contextual info: if you do: save layer as a geopackage, then the new added layer is referenced correctly by the tablename in the layer properties, general tab section: my_gpkg.gpkg|layername=my_layername

I was adviced to have a look at #4341 wich could have been a good basis for investigation (related issue, e.g.).

Didn't find a an angle of attack so far.
