  1. xcm-barriers: paid execution barrier supports more origin altering in… 

    …structions

The AllowTopLevelPaidExecutionFrom allows ClearOrigin instructions before the
expected BuyExecution instruction, it also allows messages without any origin
altering instructions.

This commit enhances the barrier to also support messages that use AliasOrigin,
or DescendOrigin. This is sometimes desired in asset transfer XCM programs
that need to run the inbound assets instructions using the origin chain root
origin, but then want to drop privileges for the rest of the program.
Currently these programs drop privileges by clearing the origin completely, but
that also unnecessarily limits the range of actions available to the rest of
the program. Using DescendOrigin or AliasOrigin allows the sending chain to
instruct the receiving chain what the deprivileged real origin is.

See polkadot-fellows/RFCs#109 and
polkadot-fellows/RFCs#122 for more details on how
DescendOrigin and AliasOrigin could be used instead of ClearOrigin.
