Description-en: Create method aliases
The traditional way to create a method alias (provide an alternate
name for a method) is simply a GLOB alias. While this works fine for
functions, it does not work for methods overloaded by a subclass.
.
Instead, Method::Alias creates a number of methods in the caller's
package to call the real method. It is designed to be used as a pragma,
to which you provide a set of pairs of method names.
