#4286: Yahoo conversation lists screen name instead of contact alias

---------------------------------------------------------+------------------
 In a conversation with a contact who's underlying buddy account is Yahoo,
 the tab name and the conversation content labels both use the Yahoo screen
 name instead of using the top-level contact's alias when it exists.  Other
 protocols such as AIM will use the contact alias if/when it exists.  I
 believe that the contact alias should always be used and the screen names
 should only be shown on explicit actions to see such information, such as
 the existing mouse-over.
