Fix type of `basis_gates` in `BasicSimulator` configuration (#13385) `basis_gates` was getting set to `Target.operation_names`, which is a `dict_keys` instance (maybe that should be changed to a more basic type?), while typically `basis_gates` is a list. `dict_keys` instances can not be deep copied, so code that usually deep copies a backend's configuration could not work. Deep copying the configuration can happen for example when using the `BasicSimulator` with sampler class like `qiskit_ibm_runtime.SamplerV2` that puts the backend into its options and then tries to deep copy the options.
