The aliases file stores user-defined aliases used in Eshell. Users
would typically be inclined to check them into version control as they
would with snippets.
The em-alias.el file normally resides inside of the directory
corresponding to eshell-directory-name, and does not assist in
generating an additional containing directory, so we must make that
directory ourselves.
