Rename wpe-exported-wayland script with an agnostic name #88

Context

As discussed in PR #86 (comment), the current wpe-exported-wayland script name is confusing because it's used with both Wayland and DRM backends, but the name suggests it's specific to Wayland.

Problem

The script is a wrapper that sets important environment variables (mostly multimedia-related, e.g., GST_PLUGIN_FEATURE_RANK) and provides a convenient way to invoke WPEWebKit properly. However, its name doesn't reflect its actual purpose and can mislead users into thinking it's backend-specific.

Proposed Solution

Rename the script to something more generic that reflects its actual purpose as a wrapper for setting up the WPEWebKit environment, regardless of the backend being used.

Considerations

  • The rename needs to be done carefully since there may be other components or scripts relying on the current name
  • Need to check all references to this script across the codebase
  • Consider backward compatibility or migration path for existing users
