It is totally legitimate to add CamelCased aliases, but due to the way
config keys are compared, the case does not matter.

Except that now it does: the alias name is expected to be all
lower-case. This is a regression introduced by a9bcf6586d1 (alias: use
the early config machinery to expand aliases, 2017-06-14).

Noticed by Alejandro Pauly, diagnosed by Kevin Willford.
