For now, I changed ob-R and ob-julia to use
`ess-gen-proc-buffer-name-function'. This is indeed cleaner.

With this, I am wondering what would be more appropriate place to set
`ess-gen-proc-buffer-name-function' - `org-babel-edit-prep:R' or
`org-babel-R-associate-session'. Same for python and other backends.
