Image name is not loaded from oci-dir #26850

Description

Issue Description

When importing an image from a directory (i.e. oci-dir), the name from its index.json is not imported, and so can only be referenced by its raw ID.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Steps to reproduce the issue (assuming fedora is an alias for some image)

# 1. Pull an image:
  podman pull fedora
# 2. Export that image to a directory (`oci-dir`):
  podman image save fedora -o fedora --format oci-dir
# 3. Remove the image from podman's local repository:
  podman image rm fedora
# 4. Import the saved image from before:
  podman image load -i fedora
# 5. Observe that the image does not have a name:
  podman image ls
