The lineageTree.pb for pangolin-data v1.23 accidentally included several lineages that were designated just after pango-designation release v1.23: BA.2.86.2, BA.2.86.3 and JQ.1. The pangolin-data v1.23 file alias_key.json, a copy of pango-designation's v1.23 alias_key.json, did not include the alias JQ. That discrepancy causes errors when JQ.1 is assigned by UShER and pangolin is not run with the --skip-scorpio flag, because the comparison between UShER-assigned lineage JQ.1 and scorpio VoC call requires lookup of the JQ alias.
Instead of removing BA.2.86.2, BA.2.86.3 and JQ.1 from lineageTree.pb, this minor release adds JQ to pangolin-data's alias_key.json to avoid errors when JQ.1 is assigned.
