Fix broken sidebar links for chained class aliases (ruby#1675)

## Summary

- Fixes broken sidebar links when class aliases chain through other
aliases (e.g., `HTTPRequestURITooLarge = HTTPRequestURITooLong =
HTTPURITooLong` in `net/http`)
- The outermost alias's sidebar link pointed to the intermediate alias's
HTML file, which is never generated since aliases don't get their own
pages
- Resolve the alias chain in `update_aliases` by looking up the current
store entry to follow already-processed aliases back to the real class
- Also make `name_for_path` follow the chain recursively as a defensive
measure

Fixes ruby#1664
