Should `tomlq` be called `tq` to be consistent with `xq`, `yq` and `jq`?

Should `tomlq` be called `tq` to be consistent with `xq`, `yq` and `jq`? #131

I've noticed that he toml utility is called tomlq while the other utilities are called xq, yq and jq. Is there a reason for the naming choice? Seems like it wouldn't name-clash with any other unix tools and would be more consistent.

tq is the name of an existing utility (https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/focal/en/man1/tq.1.html) so tomlq will remain named as it is.
