AddPostAction and AddPreAction apply to the action of the alias, which may not have been clear previously (see #2281).

Expanded the example for AddPreAction using a multi-step build.

I don't consider that this completes the referenced issue, since it only provides information to those who happen to read those manpage snips - there is neither a warning on use nor a lessening of the impression that "it ought to work".

No code is affected.

Contributor Checklist:
