patch 9.0.2080: vim9_script test too large

Commit: https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/171c50e0b0dd2608738bcc3809e5bc5e1e3cce35
Author: Yegappan Lakshmanan <yegappan@yahoo.com>
Date:   Sat Oct 28 21:28:48 2023 +0200

    patch 9.0.2080: vim9_script test too large

    Problem:  vim9_script test too large
    Solution: split vim9 type alias test into
              separate test file

    Move type alias tests to a separate test file

    closes: #13447
