Re-implement aliases (#8123) # Description This PR adds an alternative alias implementation. Old aliases still work but you need to use `old-alias` instead of `alias`. Instead of replacing spans in the original code and re-parsing, which proved to be extremely error-prone and a constant source of panics, the new implementation creates a new command that references the old command. Consider the new alias defined as `alias ll = ls -l`. The parser creates a new command called `ll` and remembers that it is actually a `ls` command called with the `-l` flag. Then, when the parser sees the `ll` command, it will translate it to `ls -l` and passes to it any parameters that were passed to the call to `ll`. It works quite similar to how known externals defined with `extern` are implemented. The new alias implementation should work the same way as the old aliases, including exporting from modules, referencing both known and unknown externals. It seems to preserve custom completions and pipeline metadata. It is quite robust in most cases but there are some rough edges (see later).
