[Fix] Prevent fields name conflicts with composite subfields names (#6713)

At field creation we are checking the availability of the name by
comparing it to the other fields' names' on the object; but for
composite fields the fields' names' as indicated in the repository do
not exactly match the column names' on the tables (e.g "createdBy" field
is actually represented by columns createdByName, createdBySource etc.).

In this PR we prevent the conflict with the standard composite fields'
names.
There is still room for errors with the custom composite fields: for
example a custom composite field "address" of type address on a custom
object "listing" will introduce the columns addressAddressStreet1,
addressAddressStreet2 etc. while we won't prevent the user from later
creating a custom field named "addressAddressStreet1".
For now I decided not to tackle this as this seem extremely edgy + would
impact performance on creation of all fields while never actually useful
(I think).
