x86/alternatives: Use a temporary buffer when optimizing NOPs

Instead of optimizing NOPs in-place, use a temporary buffer like the
usual alternatives patching flow does. This obviates the need to grab
locks when patching, see

  6778977590da ("x86/alternatives: Disable interrupts and sync when optimizing NOPs in place")

While at it, add nomenclature definitions clarifying and simplifying the
naming of function-local variables in the alternatives code.
