More intuitive field naming

The field names often derive from neighbouring question titles or unclear relationships between text and fields. This is creating issues with integration platforms (MAKE, Zapier etc.) with no means to correct the actual field names in Tally. We would like to see a field name overwrite feature on the context menu for each field to be able to eradicate some of these issues. The label/title is great for UI, but the backend field name must be editable for processing.

We've added a way to change the field name via the `::` menu: https://tally.so/changelog#9559ae814dce483fa4b2d425324eb471

Agree with this - I also find the mandatory marker moves to the title sometimes, and when tally is treating a section heading as a field title it makes it unclear that a field is mandatory. Explicit field names would be much better, particularly for processing the form once it's submitted.

This would be great! We're creating long forms with over 30 fields and mapping all those different fields in Zapier is currently very time-consuming and error-prone.
