> Through testing inter operations between JS code and C++ code I found that the JS implementation of AVRO supports aliases during schema resolution, however the C++ implementation does not.
>  
> I implemented this in the C++ library and it seems to work fine. I also updated the test cases to test it out, the ONLY thing I did NOT fix is that one of the tests reduces the schema to canonical form - which removes the aliases, then tries resolution. This case currently fails - as expected.
> I was unsure how the maintainers would prefer to handle that issue so I didn't fix that test case.
