Usage statistics not reported for Commons distribution project [#1844388]

Related to #1793426: 0 sites reported usage for a distribution packaged on Drupal.org, I looked into whether there's anything we can do to help Commons usage be recorded properly for the D7 version, since this is currently not happening.

I found this commit in Commerce Kickstart, which is successfully having its Drupal 7 usage reported. While other distributions are having their usage stats successfully reported without an implementation of hook_update_projects_alter() and without committing the project = [name] property to the disto's .info file, I found that adding both of these to Commons caused the Commons project to display with version information in the output from "drush pm-update -v" whereas previously it did not.

I hope this fixes the issue: http://drupalcode.org/project/commons.git/commit/894673f.

We'll find out as the next rounds of usage data are computed and released.

We're still not seeing usage statistics recorded against Commons 7.x.

I notice also that doing a drush up on a recent development version of Commons packaged by git does not include the Commons profile in a list of projects it checks with drush up.
