🟡 Successor project incorrectly renamed from "Kimi Code" to "Kimi Code CLI" in README
When renaming this project from "Kimi Code CLI" to "Kimi CLI", the successor project's name was also incorrectly changed from "Kimi Code" to "Kimi Code CLI". All other documentation pages in the repo (docs/en/index.md:16, docs/en/guides/getting-started.md:28, docs/zh/index.md:16, docs/zh/guides/getting-started.md:29) consistently refer to the successor as "Kimi Code" (linked to https://github.com/MoonshotAI/kimi-code). The README now says Kimi CLI is evolving into [Kimi Code CLI] and Installing Kimi Code CLI automatically migrates..., which contradicts all other docs and creates confusing circular naming (this project would share the same name as its successor).

Description
This repository is the original Python edition of the CLI. To avoid a name collision with the next-generation successor at
MoonshotAI/kimi-code, this PR makes the naming in the README unambiguous:kimi-cliPyPI package.Result: "Kimi CLI" (this repo, Python) and "Kimi Code CLI" (the successor) are now two distinct, unambiguous identities, consolidating the "Kimi Code CLI" name on the successor repository.
