[PATCH v2 3/3] rust: io: register: use path fragment for alias destination

[Alexandre Courbot]

The destination of an alias is always another register, i.e. a `struct`
type. Replace the `ident` fragment with a `path` one in the internal
rules: `path` is more accurate, and allows referencing registers using a
qualified path instead of only identifiers visible from the current
module.

This covers all aliases, except the relative register ones which are to
be removed soon.

The public rule cannot be updated yet because a `+` can still be matched
after the alias; add a TODO item to update it after relative registers
are removed.
