Add an optional metadata field to override the crate name #91

We have a deployment scenario that requires all dpkg names to be of a certain format. I'm overcoming that for now by using some gross sed scripting to change the name field in Cargo.toml before running cargo deb, but this patch allows overriding the name in the Cargo metadata instead.

Makes sense. Thanks!
