# The hash_aliases extension allows Dataset#select and Dataset#from
# to treat a hash argument as an alias specification, with keys
# being the expressions and values being the aliases, 
# which was the historical behavior before Sequel 4.
# It is only recommended to use this for backwards compatibility.
#
# You can load this extension into specific datasets:
#
#   ds = DB[:table]
#   ds.extension(:hash_aliases)
#
# Or you can load it into all of a database's datasets, which
# is probably the desired behavior if you are using this extension:
#
#   DB.extension(:hash_aliases)
