Feature request: allow renaming of fields in dicts returned by ValuesQuerySet via kwargs

Description

It would be convenient to be able to rename the fields returned by ValuesQuerySet by passing keyword arguments to QuerySet.values(), e.g.

>>> Foo.objects.all().values('id', 'bar__name')
[{'id': 1, 'bar__name': 'Bar'}]

>>> Foo.objects.all().values('id', bar__name='name')
[{'id': 1, 'name': 'Bar'}]

I think using extra(select=...) and values() can achieve this but with significant verbosity.
