The current code was assuming that the tree name and prefix were always the same, but that's not necessary the case.

Instead, pass a list of Trees, so it is possible to access to both the name and prefix.

Note: this modification requires an adaptation of the list module, e.g. for those not using the "netdev" modules.

==> Are there many users of this list module? I guess no, but if yes, I can also modify the code to only pass the prefixes to series_tree_name_direct() (instead of the names like before this PR), and then find the tree name associated to such prefix.

Or maybe we don't need this, and force the tree name and prefix to be identical.
