Description
Currently if you have an existing Python project, the flow is like this:
```
cd myproject
pyoxidizer init .
```
and then you have to open `pyoxizider.toml` and fix the name from `.`. `Cargo.toml` already figured out the project name from the directory though.

Research direction
Start at the `pyoxidizer init` command and the generated `pyoxidizer.toml` configuration flow. Verify how `Cargo.toml` derives a project name from the directory, then make the initialization result use that name instead of `.` and confirm the generated configuration is correct.
