This PR performs some cleanup and formatting around the phase definitions in C2:
 - the phase descriptions are capitalized according to the [MLA Handbook title case rules](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_case#Modern_Language_Association_(MLA)_Handbook),
 - the phases are reordered to be more or less in the order of execution or occurrence in the code,
 - the definitions in `phasetype.hpp` and `CompilePhase.java` are synced,
 - `CompilePhase.java` is aligned for better readability.

This change was tested on:
 - [x] [Github Actions](https://github.com/mhaessig/jdk/actions/runs/15605662671)
 - [x] tier1 plus some Oracle internal testing

-------------

Commit messages:
 - Align CompilePhase.java
 - Sort phases approximately
