Descripción
https://github.com/alteryx/evalml/pull/2821/ introduces the label encoder as a component in the pipeline, rather than an attribute. However, we still set a pipeline's `_encoder` attribute to a label encoder in the pipeline, if it's available.
As documented in [this comment](https://github.com/alteryx/evalml/pull/2821/files#r723692569), there is an assumption that the Label Encoder component has a name "Label Encoder". However, we should be more flexible and accept the label encoder even if its name was "my cool label encoder".
One suggestion is to find the component by checking for the component class instead. This work would be made much easier by https://github.com/alteryx/evalml/issues/2878.
One edge case that may be important to think about the case where there may be multiple label encoders. What do we do then?
