Description
### What is the problem you're trying to solve
I do maintain a fork for my own use, that contains radical changes that do not fit here.
As such, I want "my" nerdctl binary to be named differently, and also use different config, storage locations and labels names to avoid conflicts.
Generally, people looking at building their own x-ctl should be able to leverage nerdctl codebase to do that.
The problem right now is that "nerdctl" is hardcoded in a bunch of places, making that task rather pedestrian and error prone.
### Describe the solution you'd like
Suggesting that "nerdctl" strings across the codebase are reviewed and at least turned into constants that would be easy to change - or better, maybe we overload global config with a "Name" property that would default to "nerdctl" of course.
Let me know what the team here thinks about this use-case, and possible solutions.
