archive mode does not support type aliases #263

@TvdW

Description

@TvdW

Actual behavior

type MyThing = string

hits can't yet turn ... into a model.Type

Expected behavior

It should mock the interface

To Reproduce

type MyThing = string, then add it to an interface that's mocked in archive mode (think Bazel)

Additional Information

HEAD of everything.

Handling this is implemented in package_mode.go, but not in archive.go. The code at https://github.com/uber-go/mock/blob/main/mockgen/model/model_gotypes.go#L77 handles types.Named but not types.Alias. Should it do both?
