Also closes #796

For every process that is exposed, an ALIAS record will be created as <process>.<app>.<zone> that points to the load balancer.

For backwards compatibility, I'm keeping the special case CNAME that is created for <app>.<zone> for "web" procs, but I think moving forward, the more specific <process>.<app>.<zone> record should be used. If a less specific <app>.<zone> is desired, it can be created outside of Empire to point to <process>.<app>.<zone>, which can make transitioning between different processes (without downtime) very easy (e.g. if you want to switch to an ALB, you can create a new web2 process that uses an ALB, then update <app>.<zone> to point to web2.<app>.<zone>)

Good call on the new naming format/leaving the old around for a bit.
