… instead of 0. Conditionally add a dash in front as well to
avoid confusing results like '1' + sequence number = '12'.

I looks like the Model.params data structure is build in a way
that it allows mismatching parameter "keys" and "names". E.g.
{
"a": { "name": "a" },
"a0": { "name": "a" },
}
There are comments in the code that suggest this is
intentional.
I found code that confused these two values and tries to use
the name as a key, for example. This fails, messes up the
paramOrder, and such.
This should not have much, if any effect for users because
users are blocked from doing this anyway, e.g. buttons get
disabled.

Example:
On
https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Template:Anschutz
the two parameters "state" and "capitalization_test" don't have
a label in the <templatedata> JSON structure. Instead the
internal parameter name is shown. But it's capitalized for an
unknown reason. I guess this is done to make the table look
"nice". But it causes confusion – see the ticket.
This capitalization is there since the very first commits from
2013, see I16d3f9e.
Compare with VisualEditor: Edit the template on
https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Conflict-title-0.8542952978413387-I%C3%B1t%C3%ABrn%C3%A2ti%C3%B4n%C3%A0liz%C3%A6ti%C3%B8n
or use the old wikitext editor and TemplateWizard to insert
the template. In both cases the parameter names are not
capitalized.
Another argument why this capitalization is misplaced: When
there is no <templatedata> JSON blob, the TemplateData editor
auto-detects the parameters and semi-automatically creates a
minimal JSON blob. This is the moment where labels should be
created and stored so the user can edit them. But this doesn't
happen (for good reasons).
The user can't do anything about the current capitalization.
The only way to change it is to add a label that does nothing
but repeat the parameter name, just to undo the capitalization.
That should not be the way this works, I would like to argue.

This will give results whenever template data is requested e.g. by
VisualEditor or the TemplateWizard.

This is needed for metrics collection.
The patch shifts responsibility for filling out an empty record when
there is no existing TemplateData, or it's corrupt.
We could clean up further by making logic robust to missing `params`
in the original templatedata, so that an empty structure is simply
`{}`.
