There's an issue that two structs with the same name in different modules will conflict with each other when sent to Godot since only the struct name is considered. This resolves that by allowing the API user to manually change the name of the class as Godot understands it. This also improves the error message that occurs when theres are aliased classes. Future work may seek to catch this issue at compile time rather than at runtime. Relevant to godot-rust#332

Uh oh!
There was an error while loading. Please reload this page.
In godot engine, each class should have unique name, since their's no
mod/package/namespace. But in rust, we can have multiple structs with a same name (in different mods). When you try to export two or more structs with the same name to Godot, a very subtle runtime error occurs. If you don't start the editor from the command line, you won't see the error message.So we need a way to provide an alias to the registered class.
