add support for file entry name aliases

FAT and NTFS have the concept of a short and long file names, these are similar to hard links with the exception that Windows treats these more like an alias. Or treat this as a special kind of alias hard link, since there is a corresponding $FILE_NAME attribute an $I30 index entry.

Based on the output of fsutil hardlink list it does not appear 8dot3name (or short) filenames are considered hard links.
