* Update old alert with result of merge with new
On ingest, alerts with matching fingerprints are
merged if the new alert's start and end times
overlap with the old alert's.
The merge creates a new alert, which is then
updated in the internal alert store.
The original alert is not updated (because merge
creates a copy), so it is never marked as resolved
in the inhibitor's reference to it.
The code within the inhibitor relies on skipping
over resolved alerts, but because the old alert is
never updated it is never marked as resolved. Thus
it continues to inhibit other alerts until it is
cleaned up by the internal GC.
This commit updates the struct of the old alert
with the result of the merge with the new alert.
An alternative would be to always update the
inhibitor's internal cache of alerts regardless of
an alert's resolve status.

* Update inhibitor cache even if alert is resolved
This seems like a better choice than the previous
commit. I think it is more sane to have the
inhibitor update its own cache, rather than having
one of its pointers updated externally.
