A cooperative matrix conversion operation was represented in NIR by the
cmat_unary_op intrinsic with an nir_alu_op as extra parameter,
that was already lowered to a specific conversion operation
based on the matrix types.
Instead of that, add a new intrinsic `cmat_convert` that is specific
for that conversion. In addition to the src/dst matrix descriptions
already available, also include the signedness information in the
intrinsic (reuse nir_cmat_signed for that). This is needed because
different Convert operations define different interpretations for
integers, regardless their original type.
In this patch, both radv and intel were changed to use the same logic
that was previously used to pick the lowered ALU op.
This change will help represent cmat conversions involving BFloat16,
because it avoids having to create new NIR ALU ops for all the
combinations involving BFloat16.
