document aliased imports

See original GitHub issue

When importing two CRD’s that share the same group id, one needs to use aliased imports, otherwise the imports will override one another.

See https://github.com/prometheus-operator/kube-prometheus/tree/main/manifests/setup for an example of CRD’s that share group id.

That is, instead of having:

imports:
  - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/prometheus-operator/kube-prometheus/main/manifests/setup/0alertmanagerConfigCustomResourceDefinition.yaml
  - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/prometheus-operator/kube-prometheus/main/manifests/setup/0alertmanagerCustomResourceDefinition.yaml

We need to alias the imports like so:

imports:
  - alertmanagerconfig:=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/prometheus-operator/kube-prometheus/main/manifests/setup/0alertmanagerConfigCustomResourceDefinition.yaml
  - alertmanager:=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/prometheus-operator/kube-prometheus/main/manifests/setup/0alertmanagerCustomResourceDefinition.yaml

This functionality is not documented. We should add to our CRD’s section.

Side Note

It would be nice if the CLI could warn before overriding an import and suggest an alias import with a link to the new documentation section.

I don’t think it’s related actually. I need to a closer look into what’s happening there.
