create alias bachumaro -> hz_(666v)

So I asked Robicho moments ago on two VERY similar artists. At first I thought "OK these have to be two different people". So I needed a second opinion, asked Robicho and he says they're the same artist by:

-Same kind of eyes
-Same kind of breasts
-Hair coloring
-Collarbone

And his guess is that bachumaro is a backup account.

It's not our job to do this kind of detective work. If there's no concrete evidence of two artists being the same I don't think we should merge them based just on gut feeling.

If they're going to great lengths to keep two accounts completely separate to the point where there's no connecting links, then it's just a bad idea to merge them anyway.
