use full command as aliases

The default output for Cobra aliases only shows the subcommand as alias, which
is not very intuitive. This patch changes the output to use the full command
as it would be called by the user.

Before this patch:

    aliases: build, b

After this patch:

    aliases: docker buildx build, docker buildx b

Note that there's still some improvements to be made; due to how aliases must be
set-up in Cobra, aliases at different "levels" are still not shown. So for example,
`docker build --help` will not show `docker buildx build` as alias, and vice-versa.
This will require additional changes, and can possibly be resolved using custom
metadata/annotations.
