So the new hidden config is a shorthand for
#if defined(CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_ZBB) && \
defined(CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ZBB) && \
defined(CONFIG_RISCV_ALTERNATIVE)
which is reasonable to add, since that's a mouthful, but I'm not sure the
name, RISCV_ISA_ZBB_ALT, does a good job conveying all that.
If we instead just dropped the 'depends on TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ZBB' from
config RISCV_ISA_ZBB (keeping the 'depends on RISCV_ALTERNATIVE',
since nobody is really complaining about that), then we could change
this to
#if defined(CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_ZBB) && defined(CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ZBB)
which is verbose, but easy to understand.

nit: While we're here we could remove that space after the # (and the
corresponding one on the # endif)

nit: It's sufficient to check !defined(CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_ZBB), so no need
for this change or its #endif comment change below.

When we can use C like this, rather than #if, we can create a helper to
reduce the verbosity of what I proposed above, e.g.
static inline bool csum_zbb(void)
{
return IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_ZBB) &&
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ZBB);
}

Here we have a problem with the compound config expression, but we could
rework these functions to be like this
#if defined(CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_ZBB) && defined(CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ZBB)
ALTERNATIVE("j strcmp_nozbb", "nop", 0, RISCV_ISA_EXT_ZBB, 1)
...zbb impl...
ret
#endif
strcmp_nozbb:
