Add ability to customize OpenFoodFacts integration #967

Hello, liking the OpenFoodFacts integration for the most part but having a repeated issue. For most of the items in my pantry (primarily Asian goods, but also American products), products scanned simply pull in the "name" field, which tends to ignore the brand. This becomes an issue when trying to search for a specific product or brand of item, since it simply won't exist.

How feasible would it be to add a custom API pull option, e.g. appending the "brand" of the product to the "name"? For example, this packet of tuna doesn't mention a brand name, which quickly became confusing for my father as it simply didn't show when searching for "Bumble Bee". Allowing customization to add, say, the brand name to the front of an added item, whether it be through a GUI or config file like Grocy's official service, would be a lifesaver.
