[wp-hackers] The term_group column

[Christine Davis]

Looking at the code,  if term 8 is an alias of term 6;  then the term_group
for both term 6 and term 8 is the next term_group incrementally.

(So if there were three term groups in use;  term 6 and term 8 would have a
term group of 4.)

Roughly speaking,  it's not so much an alias (In so far as there is no
primary term) as it is setting terms to be in a group together.
