Waldir Pimenta 8bbd22d47b toolbox*: update project name (#19769)
The project was renamed to "Toolbx" to improve searchability back in 2021:
<https://github.com/containers/containertoolbx.org/pull/1>

The command name and a few other places (environment variables, runtime paths, etc.)
kept the previous name for backward compatibility, but otherwise the new name is to be used:
<https://github.com/containers/toolbox/pull/1446>
