- A partial answer may be better than none.
Not requiring that two hypotheses exhaust the parameter space is fairly clearly present in Neyman and Pearson (1933) - the origin of the Neyman Pearson lemma, so arguably no later than that.They don't explicitly lay out hypotheses in that form you have though, this is still pretty early on.- Fisher was more focused on the null rather than laying out an explicit alternative or multiple alternatives.
