Bug Description

In certain cases we need to support moving a specific device from one channel to another. Example: we have turbo and arale devices in the meizu.en channel and now we need to move turbo out to a separate one: meizu-pd.en. Currently that's not possible, as aliases and redirects work per-channel. Aliases are very heavy weight (as they perform copies), so a redirect would be perfect.

I will have to follow up with some changes. The basic redirections seem to work correctly, but we also need to add some support for this in copy-image, import-images and other scripts. Will have to mirror that to the testability branch later as well.
