[python] [commit] alias.py removal

[Jan Kratochvil]

Hi Phil,

removed alias.py from archer-tromey-python as it is IMO obsolete.
And it would at least need to be renamed otherwise.


Regards,
Jan

Remove alias.py as it conflicts with "alias" GDB built-in command from:

commit d86c4fa09227601559a328a861246931652afc1e
Author: Doug Evans <dje-hpIqsD4AKlfQT0dZR+***@public.gmane.org>
Date: Sun Oct 9 22:21:41 2011 +0000
Add new "alias" command.

causing regression for gdb.base/alias.exp.
