alias function for pd.Series

[samukweku]

Brief Description

I would like to propose pd.Series.alias(new name) to allow for convenient renaming of a Series.
This comes in handy when renaming within a function, and allow for changing a Series name via a callable.
pd.Series.rename only changes the name if a scalar is passed; if a callable is passed, it is passed to the index labels, not the name of the Series. alias works only on the name, not the index labels.

Example API

series = pd.Series({'a':[1,2,3]})
series.alias('new_name')
series.alias(str.lower)
series.alias(lambda s: f"{s}_mean")
