Support aliases in rope_autoimport about rope HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi @tkrabel-db, thanks for your interest in contributing to rope.

I think the idea sounds reasonable to me. You're welcome to try and implement it, if the code looks reasonable enough, I am happy to review and accept the pull request.

I don't think this should be implemented as a hardcoded list of aliases though, it would be much more sensible to make this a configurable option.

Rope reads project tooling configuration from pyproject.toml or a user-global configuration file pytool.toml (refer to https://github.com/bagel897/pytoolconfig/blob/main/src/pytoolconfig/sources/pytool.py for the typical location for each OS). One of this option could be a dictionary with a list of these aliases for the user.

Let me know if you would need any help.

That makes sense! I'll work on it!

@tkrabel-db @lieryan I made an initial pass at fixing this issue in #730, if the approach is reasonable I can keep working on the PR to complete the feature.
