python: Include aliases in ofp_fields.py.

We currently auto-generate a dictionary of field names and decoders. However, sometimes fields can be specified by their cannonical NXM or OXM names. Modify gen_ofp_field_decoders to also generate a dictionary of aliases so it's easy to map OXM/NXM names to their fields and decoding information.
