of: Rename of_modalias_node()

This helper does not produce a real modalias, but tries to get the
"product" compatible part of the "vendor,product" compatibles only. It
is far from creating a purely useful modalias string and does not seem
to be used like that directly anyway, so let's try to give this helper a
more meaningful name before moving there a real modalias helper (already
existing under of/device.c).

Also update the various documentations to refer to the strings as
"aliases" rather than "modaliases" which has a real meaning in the Linux
kernel.

There is no functional change.
