[LEDE-DEV] [PATCH ubox 2/3] kmodloader: lift restriction on module alias info

kmodloader has a restriction of storing only 32 aliases for a given
module; as modules can have easily more than 32 aliases let's remove
the restriction by using a dynamic allocation mechanism when retrieving
the aliases.
