aodMerger: Special option to merge only folders of the same name

Adding a special `merge-by-name` option which asks the merger only
to merge together dataframe folders of the same name.

This is needed only in special situations where we want to enfore the output
structure of the AOD to be the same as that of a reference (data) AOD.
An example is MC-DATA embedding.
