Description
### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
repeated use of the same commands within a server of friends lead me to request this, as we just thought it would be a nice feature to spice up the bot
### What is your ideal solution to the problem?
A proxy command works similarly to a command alias, except instead of subbing in a command for another, a proxy would be a suffix that would he read as a command
so for example you could set
!DOOM to read as a Play request for a MF DOOM playlist or !SANS to just play Megalovania
### How would this feature be used?
Self explanitory, a user would just need to type an already common phrase into the chat instead of looking for a past message or a link to copy, mosrly just useful for friend groups with inside jokes relating to certain tracks or clips

Research direction
The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points. Begin by locating the existing command-alias and command-parsing behavior, then define how proxy suffixes are configured, stored, matched, and converted into play requests. Done should include a documented configuration path and coverage for examples such as !DOOM and !SANS.
