Description

These files are present for historical reasons and do not serve any real purpose. All extension code should be completely contained within the extension and that includes the name of the extension. We should remove all of these files.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Search the codebase for all well known names.h files, verify they are not referenced by extension code, and remove them. Update any remaining includes if necessary.
