Return a String that can be used as the name of a launch configuration. The name is guaranteed to be unique (no existing launch configurations will have this name).

This method returns the character encoding to use when launching the specified ILaunchConfiguration. The returned encoding can be derived from one of three places in the following order:
  1. An attribute saved on the configuration itself (where no attribute means use the default encoding).
  2. The mapped resources for the configuration, in the event one of them has a specific encoding that is not the workspace default. If there are more than one mapped resource we optimistically ask only the first resource for its encoding.
  3. We ask the ResourcesPlugin for the workspace preference (which resolves back to the system property file.encoding if the user has made no changes to the workspace encoding preference).
