lib/modules: Add a function to create an option alias that respects the priority
This commit adds a function `mkAliasOptionModuleWithPriority`. This function will make an alias to an existing option and copy over the priority. This functionality is needed for PRs like #53041. In that case `nixos-generate-config` added an option to `hardware-configuration.nix` with `mkDefault`. That option was then changed and an alias created for the old name. The end user should be able to set the non-alias option in their `configuration.nix` and have everything work correctly. Without this function, the priority for the option won't be copied over correctly and the end-user will get a message saying they have the same option set to two different values.
