Add Azure Alternate Type spector case and fix numeric type generation bug

[Copilot]

Adds spector test case for Azure Client Generator Core alternate-type spec. During implementation, discovered and fixed bugs in the TypeSpec-TS emitter that caused issues when generating code for array types.

Bug Fixes

modelUtils.ts:

1. Added numeric scalar type support: TypeSpec's numeric scalar type was not mapped, causing numeric[] to generate invalid array type instead of number[].

// Added case for numeric type
case "numeric":
  return applyIntrinsicDecorators(program, type, {
    type: "number"
  });

2. Fixed null check for array schema items: Added null checks before accessing .includes() method when schema.items.type is undefined.

// Before
} else if (schema.items.type.includes("|")) {

// After  
} else if (schema.items.type && schema.items.type.includes("|")) {

Test Case Implementation

• cadl-ranch-list.js: Added azure/client-generator-core/alternate-type to both azureRlcTsps and azureModularTsps
• tspconfig.yaml: Created configuration files for RLC (with is-modular-library: false) and Modular test directories
• Test specs: Implemented azureAlternateType.spec.ts for both RLC and Modular with 4 test cases:
  • getModel / putModel: Tests Feature model with geometry, properties, and optional id
  • getProperty / putProperty: Tests ModelWithFeatureProperty wrapper

All 4 RLC integration tests pass successfully.

• Fixes Azure/autorest.typescript#3556

This section details on the original issue you should resolve

<issue_title>Add spector case for Azure Alternate Type</issue_title> <issue_description>typespec from https://github.com/Azure/typespec-azure/tree/main/packages/azure-http-specs/specs/azure/client-generator-core/alternate-type

1. run rush update && rush build
2. run rushx copy:typespec under folder packages/typespec.
3. Add item into azureRlcTsps and azureModularTsps in file cadl-ranch-list.js. item:

  {
    outputPath: "azure/client-generator-core/alternate-type",
    inputPath: "azure/client-generator-core/alternate-type"
  }

4. create tspconfig.yaml to azureIntegration/generated/azure/client-generator-core/alternate-type and azureModularIntegration/generated/azure/client-generator-core/alternate-type, the file configuration should refer to the cases in the same directory respectively.
5. create azureAlternateType.spec.ts for azureIntegration and azureModularIntegration, then complete the case file according to the temp/specs/azure/client-generator-core/alternate-type/mockapi.ts
6. Verify that all Integration case tests pass. If there are any issues, please fix them.</issue_description>

@copilot Based on the issue description, re-implement it.

Re-implemented the solution with the following fixes in commit dbd2ebb:

1. Fixed tspconfig.yaml for RLC to include is-modular-library: false option (was generating modular client instead of RLC)
2. Added support for numeric scalar type in modelUtils.ts - TypeSpec's numeric[] was generating invalid array type instead of number[]
3. Added null check for schema.items.type in getSchemaForArrayModel to prevent crashes
4. Fixed test file to use "Feature" as const for literal type compatibility

All 4 RLC integration tests now pass (getModel, putModel, getProperty, putProperty).
