Description

I think it makes sense to move the verbose_name and verbose_name_plural attributes (https://github.com/alex/django-taggit/blob/develop/taggit/models.py#L157) to ItemBase from TaggedItem since if anyone just extends GenericTaggedItemBase or TaggedItemBase will have to define those attributes as well.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Move the `verbose name` and `verbose name plural` attributes from the `TaggedItem` model at `taggit/models.py` line 157 to the `ItemBase` class. This will ensure that any custom model extending `GenericTaggedItemBase` or `TaggedItemBase` inherits these attributes without needing to redefine them. No new functionality is required; just relocate the code and update any references.
