File Output default name needs fixing.
The File Output node in the compositor sets a default file name is 'file_name' which when rendering something out will give you file_name.png no matter your actual .blend file name. This makes no sense whatsoever, so the default should be {blend_name} which will instead give you awesomeblendfile_final2.png or whatever your file name is.
The below screenshot is showing the current default on top and what I think should be default in the bottom.

Good idea! Variable templates are relatively new so they haven't spread to many places yet, so any idea is welcome.
I've made a quick PR to see what the developers think: projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/159598
