Added support for defining command aliases in distutils configuration

files, under the "[aliases]" section.  To prevent recursion and to allow
aliases to call the command of the same name, a given alias can be expanded
only once per command-line invocation.  You can define new aliases with the
"alias" command, either for the local, global, or per-user configuration.

  * Added "rotate" command to delete old distribution files, given a set of
    patterns to match and the number of files to keep.  (Keeps the most
    recently-modified distribution files matching each pattern.)
