ACPICA: Fix for Alias references within Package objects

This fixes a problem where a reference to an Alias within the
definition of a Package was not always resolved properly. Aliases
to objects like Processors, ThermalZones, etc. were resolved to the
actual object instead of a reference to the object as it should be.
Package objects are only allowed to contain integer, string,
buffer, package, and reference objects.
