bug#31765: 26.1; Can't define alias for git in eshell |

By trial & error I came to the conclusion that the "juxtaposition"
case is not valid anymore. The example in the documentation:
> For example, ll is a common alias for ls -l, and would be defined
> with the command invocation ‘alias ll ls -l’; with this defined,
> running ‘ll foo’ in Eshell will actually run ‘ls -l foo’.
plainly fails, it doesn't list foo but the current directory, foo is
simply ignored. The correct way seems to be:
alias ll 'ls -l $*'
which is not documented (not even in the draft guide [1]).
