For non-docker installations, we ship a sm-k6 binary with the required sm extension that we must use. However, this binary is never looked up, and instead we default to a k6 binary in the system which may not have the required extension, resulting in obscure failures with exit code 255.
This PR changes the default value to sm-k6, and adjusts the Dockerfile so the k6 binary is copied inside with this name.
