Add equivalence library entry for swap to ECR or CZ (#12312)

* Add equivalence library entry for swap to ECR or CZ

This commit adds two new equivalence library entries to cover the
conversion from a SWAP gate to either ecr or cz directly. These are
common 2q basis gates and without these entries in the equivalence
library the path found from a lookup ends up with a much less efficient
translation. This commit adds the two new entries so that the
BasisTranslator will use a more efficient decomposition from the start
when targeting these basis. This will hopefully result in less work for
the optimization stage as the output will already be optimal and not
require simplification.

Testing for this PR is handled automatically by the built-in testing
harness in test_gate_definitions.py that evaluates all the entries in
the standard equivalence library for unitary equivalence.

* Add name to annotated gate circuit in qpy backwards compat tests

* Fix equivalence library tests

As fallout from the addition of SingletonGate and
SingletonControlledGate we were accidentally not running large portions
of the unit tests which validate the default session equivalence
library. This test dynamically runs based on all members of the standard
gate library by looking at all defined subclasses of Gate and
ControlledGate. But with the introduction of SingletonGate and
SingletonControlledGate all the unparameterized gates in the library
were not being run through the tests. This commit fixes this to catch
that the swap definition added in the previous commit on this PR branch
used an incorrect definition of SwapGate using ECRGate. The definition
will be fixed in a follow up PR.

* Use a more efficient and actually correct circuit for ECR target

The previous definition of a swap gate using ECR rz and sx was incorrect
and also not as efficient as possible. This was missed because the tests
were accidently broken since #10314 which was fixed in the previous
commit. This c... (continued)
