           Summary: get_set() is used inconsistently in altperl tools

One of the nice features of the altperl tools is the potential to use memorable
names for sets instead of numbers. 

However, I have to say "potential" because this feature is not supported
throughout all of the tools. 

The following tools use the "get_set" method, which enables this:

/usr/local/sbin/slonik_create_set
/usr/local/sbin/slonik_drop_set
/usr/local/sbin/slonik_drop_table
/usr/local/sbin/slonik_execute_script
/usr/local/sbin/slonik_subscribe_set

However, the following scripts use a more primitive method of getting the set
ID, allowing it only be either a number or the word "set", followed by a
number:

/usr/local/sbin/slonik_drop_set
/usr/local/sbin/slonik_execute_script
/usr/local/sbin/slonik_merge_sets
/usr/local/sbin/slonik_move_set
/usr/local/sbin/slonik_subscribe_set
/usr/local/sbin/slonik_unsubscribe_set

Until these are also refactored to also use "get_set()", using memorable names
as set identifiers is not possible. 

Thanks!
