From: Chen Hanxiao <chenhanxiao at cn.fujitsu.com>

commit 2b172a8effa712aee97a21a64d2d02060958f9b2 allow
alias to expand to opt=value pair.
That means alias may not look alike since then.

With this patch we will also track alias.
If we type command with one option and another marked
as its alias, we will get an error message like:
error: option '--AA' duplicates its alias '--AAA'

v2: do not depend on orders of options in array.
    Alias could be anywhere except after the default one.
