Rename resolves file name collision noted in Issue #2440. Also renamed
cask class for consistency with cask naming guidelines.

I'm not particularly wedded to the idea of appending -app to casks that
conflict with source code brew formulas; I'm happy to modify my PR to
whatever convention the project wishes to adopt. Conceivably, this
issue could come up again, as there are many projects that distribute
binary executables and source code downloads, so it would probably be
a good idea to have a policy in mind for this type of collision.

Renaming is not the best solution, and we can solve this without resorting to it, so I’ll close this for now. See my comment on your other issue for details and a possible fix.
