Event Timeline
Historically, the initial version of "aliases" was intended to be user specific, so it wasn't a "config" key.
D2191 changed this so that .arcconfig could also define them, but they remained defined in a nonstandard way in .arcrc.
Later changes added more configuration sources and D7271 consolidated configuration management, but since this one was weird it never got expanded to work with other sources.
This makes "aliases" definable in any source using standard precedence rules (runtime, local, project, user, system) by working around the weirdness of the "aliases" key in the ConfigurationManager itself. This isn't especially pretty but makes the behavior correct.
