[bug]: OMZP::aliases not functional

[aidan-gibson]

Environment

Device: apple | darwin21.3.0 | arm64 Shell: /opt/homebrew/bin/zsh | -zsh | zsh-5.9-0-g73d3173 Zi: 572553b2c6326c3609cea593e48745a1da9112fe

Reproduction steps

1.In zshrc add `zi snippet OMZP::aliases`
2.Reload terminal
3.Run `acs`

❯ acs
/opt/homebrew/bin/python3: can't open file '/Users/aidangibson/.zi/snippets/OMZP::aliases/cheatsheet.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

### Expected behavior

```bash
After manually adding cheatsheet.py from [aliases repo](https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/tree/master/plugins/aliases/) to `~/.zi/snippets/OMZP//aliases`, command works and provides expected output as follows.

acs
[_default]
    airdrop = sh /usr/local/bin/airdropfix.sh
    brew86 = arch -x86_64 /usr/local/bin/brew
    bu = brew update && brew upgrade && ziu
    c = clear
    cat = bat
    conda = load_conda && conda
    diff = diff --color
    ext = cd '\''/Users/aidangibson/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~md~obsidian/Documents/Ext Brain'\
    fsh-alias = fast-theme
    intel = arch -x86_64 /bin/zsh
    karabiner = code /Users/aidangibson/.config/karabiner.edn
    ls = ls -G
    pi = python3 -i
    pinentry = pinentry-mac
    python = load_conda && python
    python3.7 = arch -x86_64 /Users/aidangibson/.pyenv/versions/3.7.14/bin/python3.7
    python3.9 = /opt/homebrew/bin/python3.9
    reload = source ~/.zshrc
    rip = rip --graveyard ~/.Trash
    run-help = man
    s = sudo pmset disablesleep 0 && sudo pmset sleepnow
    tree = ls --tree
    which-command = whence
    zshrc = code ~/.zshrc && code ~/.zaliases && code ~/.zshenv

[arch]
    pip3.7 = arch -x86_64 /Users/aidangibson/.pyenv/versions/3.7.14/bin/python3.7 -m pip
    pyenv86 = arch -x86_64 pyenv

[zi]
    zini = zi
    zinit = zi
    ziu = zi self-update && zi delete --yes --quiet --clean && zi update --all --parallel --quiet
    zplugin = zi

### Current behavior

```bash
Explained above

Code snippet

zi snippet OMZP::aliases

Additional information

If I'm not mistaken, it appears "snippets" are compiled to .zwc files. This presents a problem for OMZP::aliases, as I don't have the option to load it as a plugin, only a snippet.

[ss-o]

The OMZP::aliases is the OhMyZsh plugin (not Zsh plugin), and in some cases, it requires additional setup steps because of missing libraries or file order/amount/location.

One of the solutions would be:

zi for nocompile svn \
  multisrc'aliases.plugin.zsh' pick'/dev/null' \
    OMZP::aliases

Note

• This snippet might be simplified, I just improvised here.

The reason is that you want a single directory in a repository, and subversion is one of the solutions to get it. I am working on more solutions such as GitHub codeload, etc.
