Issue:
Allow specifying `crate = "something::hot_lib_reloader"` on hot_module! for when library is not a direct dependency
Hello,
In order to make it possible to re-export  `hot_lib_reloader` and use `hot_module` derive,  a new parameter `crate` should be added, to specify the crate name in the context where the proc-macro is called.

 I found other example of this in serde and tokio
 https://github.com/serde-rs/serde/blob/1fcda0ebdb2cfa050df42fded93ba07c14e4b683/test_suite/tests/test_serde_path.rs#L6
