[CostModel] Replace ShuffleKind::SK_Alternate with ShuffleKind::SK_Select (PR33744)

As discussed on PR33744, this patch relaxes ShuffleKind::SK_Alternate which requires shuffle masks to only match an alternating pattern from its 2 sources:

e.g. v4f32: <0,5,2,7> or <4,1,6,3>

This seems far too restrictive as most SIMD hardware which will implement it using a general blend/bit-select instruction, so replaces it with SK_Select, permitting elements from either source as long as they are inline:

e.g. v4f32: <0,5,2,7>, <4,1,6,3>, <0,1,6,7>, <4,1,2,3> etc.

This initial patch just updates the name and cost model shuffle mask analysis, later patch reviews will update SLP to better utilise this - it still limits itself to SK_Alternate style patterns.
