Support specifying top-level aliases in the command and group decorator

[Shivansh-007]

Overview

Reference taken from python-discord/bot#1124.

A new keyword argument has been added to the discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin.command (group) decorators. The kwarg root_aliases allows a sequence of alias names to be specified which are meant to act as top-level commands and groups. For example,

@github_group.command(name="issue", aliases=("pr",), root_aliases=("pr", "issue"))

Example

#Example for commands:
- `!gh issue 72` can also be called as `!issue 72`.
- `!gh src eval` can also be called as `!src eval`.

#Example for groups:
 - `!cmd gh issue 72` can also be called as `!gh issue 72`.
 - `!cmd src eval` can also be called as `!gh src eval`.

Did you:

• If dependencies have been added or updated, run pipenv lock?
• Lint your code (pipenv run lint)?
• Set the PR to allow edits from contributors?

When you’re saying “reference taken”, what is that referring to? For example, have you copied any code?

While the MIT license allows you to do most things you want to, it also requires you to include the original license. I’d recommend reading the license for more info, and asking us if you’re unsure.

By "reference taken", I mean that while writing the code, I had a look at their code and saw how they implemented it, hmm you can say the monkey patching for commands.command is 75% copied.

Would I need to add PyDis MIT license? or something else... am not sure.

Closing PR as I am not interested in contributing to the bot anymore, if anyone wants to take over you can open a new PR.
