Also, improve our existing support for Eask's predecessor project, Cask, by adding its name to our modeline-matching pattern. References: github-linguist/linguist#7829

Description
Eask is a CLI for managing Emacs Lisp dependencies, and is intended to replace Cask for managing Elisp projects. Like Cask, it uses a similarly-named Elisp file named
Eask, which is the spiritual equivalent of Ruby'sGemfiles (meaning it's very much a one-file-per-repository type of format).Inexplicably, both Cask and Eask define their own modes for their respective files (despite both containing ordinary Emacs Lisp code), so modelines like
-*- mode: eask; -*-have to be considered.1 I've therefore added their names to Emacs Lisp's aliases list for the benefit of Linguist'sModelinestrategy.Checklist

See
auto-complete's Eask for a real-world example. ↩I couldn't find a non-GPL sample, and this is the same source that provided our existing
Caskfilename sample back in Add Cask file as Emacs Lisp #3416. Hence I'm assuming copyleft won't be a problem). ↩
