cmd/compile/internal/importer: flip enable alias to true [1.23 backport]

[xieyuschen]

This issue is created to request a backport at go1.23 to fix #70394. The issue doesn't exist in go1.24(master) as the code has refactored a bit before and fixed this issue.

go/src/cmd/compile/internal/importer/ureader.go

Line 34 in b0bbfb1

enableAlias: true,

The backport fix allows ureader to read exportdata with alias correctly and it doesn't affect the correctness of compile to construct exportdata for the following packages.

Change https://go.dev/cl/629997 mentions this issue: [release-branch.go1.23] cmd/compile: enable alias for pkgReader

[timothy-king]

Thoughts for cherrypicking: Setting enableAlias: true, seems plausible. I would like to do more tests first though before weighing in on whether it is worth the risk.

My investigation makes me believe that this should be safe enough for 1.23. The CL to cherry pick would be https://go.dev/cl/631855.

When could I expect a 1.23.x release with this fix? I was hoping that would be the case with 1.23.4, given that the patch was approved last week, but unfortunately I see it's not the case.

@mvdan The patch has been approved on gerrit, but the status on the issue is CherryPickCandidate. For it to go forward, its must be CherryPickApproved. See https://go.dev/wiki/MinorReleases. (Yes this can be confusing.)

[mvdan]

I see. Hopefully this can move along relatively quickly at this point, as I am unable to use alias tracking still.

This change has been approved as it is a problem without a viable workaround.
