Dodji Seketeli fe9fa7a05f Support filtering out just one alias of a function
Suppose a function private_foo() has a symbol private_foo and also a
another one (an alias) named public_foo.  Then suppose we want to
filter out sub-type changes to private_foo().  But then we still want
to see changes to public_foo.

This patch does add this feature.  The [suppress_function] directive
now has a new (hidden) boolean 'allow_other_aliases' property.  When
set to 'yes' or 'true', if the function being looked at has an alias
symbol that does *NOT* match the other properties of the directive,
then the directive doesn't suppress reports for the function.  This
new  property is set to yes by default.

This means that when a function has got multiple aliases, to suppress
the function, one needs to write a regular expression that matches the
names of aliases.  Otherwise the function will not be suppressed.

	* include/abg-comparison.h (function_suppression::{get,
	set}_allow_other_aliases): Declare new member functions.
	* src/abg-comparison.cc
	(function_suppression::priv::allow_other_aliases_): New data
	member.
	(function_suppression::priv::priv): Initialize it to 'true'.
	(function_suppression::{get, set}_allow_other_aliases): Define new
	member functions.
	(read_function_suppression): Parse the new "allow_other_aliases"
	property.
	(function_suppression::suppresses_function): Update to evaluate
	the new 'allow_other_aliases' property when there is a property to
	match against some a symbol name of the function.
	(corpus_diff::report): Fix the printing of function aliases when
	printing sub-type changes to properly emit the plural of the word
	'symbol' when the function has several aliases.
	* include/abg-ir.h (elf_symbol::get_number_of_aliases): Declare
	new member function.
	* src/abg-ir.cc (elf_symbol::get_number_of_aliases): Define new
	member function.
	* doc/manuals/libabigail-concepts.rst: Update manual.
	* tests/data/test-diff-dwarf/test5-report.txt: Adjust.
