I think diverting is probably not the correct solution to this problem.
We should use alternatives for the pico binary, with alpine providing a
higher priority than nano's.

Regarding the binary name, I think it shouldn't be renamed. I don't know
what you mean with "the fact that it's part of the alpine source package
is irrelevant". There is a source package in Debian which builds a
"pine" package (not by default, due to licensing reasons). If you rename
alpine-pico to pico, there'll be two different "pico" binaries with
different version numbers and source, even if the "real" one isn't in
the binary archive.
