/**
 * Declares new variables which are aliases of other variables.
 * Takes a "map"-Parameter which is an associative array which defines the shorthand mapping.
 *
 * The variables are only declared inside the ``<f:alias>...</f:alias>`` tag. After the
 * closing tag, all declared variables are removed again.
 *
 * Using this ViewHelper can be a sign of weak architecture. If you end up
 * using it extensively you might want to fine-tune your "view model" (the
 * data you assign to the view).
 *
 * Examples
 * ========
 *
 * Single alias
 * ------------
 *
 * ::
 *
 *     <f:alias map="{x: 'foo'}">{x}</f:alias>
 *
 * Output::
 *
 *     foo
 *
 * Multiple mappings
 * -----------------
 *
 * ::
 *
 *     <f:alias map="{x: foo.bar.baz, y: foo.bar.baz.name}">
 *         {x.name} or {y}
 *     </f:alias>
 *
 * Output::
 *
 *     [name] or [name]
 *
 * Depending on ``{foo.bar.baz}``.
