By default, when compiling more than one file, a shared library is generated with a file derived from the sha of compiled modules (i.e. the group name). This is also used in the names of generated .c and .h files. Add experimental `group_name` argument to `mypycify` that allows overriding this. This can be useful when integrating mypyc to a build system, as this makes the names of output files more predictable.
