docs: rename repository from oil.nvim to canola.nvim

Problem: the fork shared the same name as upstream, making it difficult
to distinguish and discover independently.

Solution: rename the repository to canola.nvim — a type of oil, making
the lineage obvious while establishing a distinct identity. Update all
references in the README, rockspec, and issue templates.

**A file explorer that lets you edit your filesystem like a buffer**
Browse directories as normal Neovim buffers, then create, rename, move, copy,
and delete files by editing the listing and saving. Cross-directory operations
work seamlessly across local, SSH, S3, and trash adapters.
A refined [oil.nvim](https://github.com/stevearc/oil.nvim) — edit your
filesystem like a buffer, with bug fixes and community PRs that haven't landed
upstream.
