Franchise ID Numbers

It's been a full ten years of SlamNation, can you believe it?! For the purposes of historical tracking, every franchise now has a "franchise ID," prioritized by conference, owner start year, and owner alphabetical order.

Each franchise ID number stays with the franchise through all ownership handovers, thus making it easier to keep track for spreadsheets, and to dig up historical numbers.

Also note that I changed -- and standardized -- everyone’s team abbreviations into four letters. As well as moved full team names to the second field on ESPN. It all just makes it easier for me to pull and run stats. Thanks!
