[PATCH 2/3] elevator: allow name aliases

[Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx>]

Since we now lookup elevator types with the appropriate multiqueue
capability, allow schedulers to register with an alias alongside
the real name. This is in preparation for allowing 'mq-deadline'
to register an alias of 'deadline' as well.
