    Properly handle device aliases used as dependencies
    
    If a device unit has aliases defined in udev rules, and there are
    other units that depend on that alias, as in
    
      BindTo=sys-subsystem-net-devices-eth0.device
    
    then systemd will fail the start the alias, and any dependent units
    will time out.  See
    
      https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52580
    
    This is because unit_add_name() in device_add_escaped_name() will
    return EEXIST.
    
    The solution taken here is to call device_update_unit() on the alias
    name.  Thus if a unit with the alias name already exists, we reuse it;
    otherwise a new unit is created.  Creating multiple units for a single
    device is perhaps suboptimal, but it's consistent with the treatment
    of udev symlinks in device_process_new_device().
