feat: add option to enable alias on relation tables

[Seb33300]

In #3216, I implemented automatic unique aliases on relation tables to prevent duplicated table name issues.

That bugfix unfortunately introduce a BC break that we cannot prevent.

As suggested by @Arkhas, that makes that feature optional and disabled by default to keep backward compatibility.

$datatable = new EloquentDataTable($this->query());
$datatable->enableEagerJoinAliases();

Sounds good, maybe add the ability to set a default value in the config ? that's would be nice to have, but we can work with this if you don't think that would be a good idea.

Thank you very much !

@yajra Since it's not possible to implement alias on join table in a backward compatible way and because this is causing multiple bug reports and complication for developers who want to upgrade (see #3216 (comment) or #3237 (comment)), I finally updated that PR to disable aliases on join tables by default.

The developer will have to opt in for that feature if he is facing a Not unique table/alias error:

$datatable = new EloquentDataTable($this->query());
$datatable->enableEagerJoinAliases();
