Subject: [PATCH] merge COVELLITE into Lazarus Group

I would propose to move COVELLITE as tracked by Dragos as an alias into Lazarus Group and merge the references.
Dragos' own description states that it refers to the same group as "Lazarus" and "Hidden Cobra" in that infrastructure and tools are the same: https://www.dragos.com/threat-activity-groups/ - the entry in MISP's threat actor library also reflects that.
