stats: Fix incorrect name conflict panic with grouped stats

Info::setName() performs a sanity check to ensure that the same stat
name isn't used twice. This doesn't work for new-style stats with a
parent group since the name is only unique within the group. Disable
the check for new-style stats since these usually use names generated
from member variable names.
