When manipulating generic operations, such as in dialect conversion /
rewriting, it is often necessary to view a list of Values as operands to an
operation without creating the operation itself. The absence of such view
makes dialect conversion patterns, among others, to use magic numbers to obtain
specific operands from a list of rewritten values when converting an operation.
Introduce XOpOperandAdaptor classes that wrap an ArrayRef<Value *> and provide
accessor functions identical to those available in XOp. This makes it possible
for conversions to use these adaptors to address the operands with names rather
than rely on their position in the list. The adaptors are generated from ODS
together with the actual operation definitions.
This is another step towards making dialect conversion patterns specific for a
given operation.
Illustrate the approach on conversion patterns in the standard to LLVM dialect
conversion.

* There is no longer a need to explicitly remap function attrs.
- This removes a potentially expensive call from the destructor of Function.
- This will enable some interprocedural transformations to now run intraprocedurally.
- This wasn't scalable and forces dialect defined attributes to override
a virtual function.
* Replacing a function is now a trivial operation.
* This is a necessary first step to representing functions as operations.

Establish the following convention:
1. Container class types end in "Of" (e.g. TensorOf) and take a list of allowed types.
2. An X container where only a single type is allowed is called TypeX (e.g. I32Tensor).
3. An X container where any type is allowed is called AnyX (e.g. AnyTensor).

Using ArrayRef introduces issues with the order of evaluation between a constructor and
the arguments of the subsequent calls to the `operator()`.
As a consequence the order of captures is not well-defined can go wrong with certain compilers (e.g. gcc-6.4).
This CL fixes the issue by using lambdas in lieu of ArrayRef.

This reduces conflict between these and other type names, where we're moving towards "Of" indicating a container type containing certain types. It also better matches the "Neg" predicate modifier and generally is pretty understandable/readable for predicates.

Previously we force the C++ namespaces to be `NS` if `SomeOp` is defined as
`NS_SomeOp`. This is too rigid as it does not support nested namespaces
well. This CL adds a "namespace" field into the Dialect class to allow
flexible namespaces.

Restructure the Regions section in LangRef to avoid having a wall of text and
reflect a recent evolution of the design. Unspecify region types, that are put
on hold until use cases arise.
Update the Rationale doc with a list of design decisions related to regions.
Separately list the design alternatives that were considered and discarded due
to the lack of existing use cases.

The idea is to lower `gpu.launch` operations into `gpu.launch_func` operations by outlining the kernel body into a function, which is closer to the NVVM model.

This syntax removes boilerplate and verbose list of region arguments in the
header of the entry block. It groups operands into segments related to GPU
blocks, GPU threads as well as the operands that are forwarded to the kernel.
The two former segments are also used to give names to the region arguments
that are used for GPU blocks and threads inside the kernel body region.

The generic form of operations currently supports optional regions to be
located after the operation type. As we are going to add a type to each
region in a leading position in the region syntax, similarly to functions, it
becomes ambiguous to have regions immediately after the operation type. Put
regions between operands the optional list of successors in the generic
operation syntax and wrap them in parentheses. The effect on the exisitng IR
syntax is minimal since only three operations (`affine.for`, `affine.if` and
`gpu.kernel`) currently use regions.

Region is the generalization of a function body (a list of blocks forming a CFG) to be allowed to be enclosed inside any operation. This nesting of IR is already leveraged in the affine dialect to support `affine.for`, `affine.if`, and `gpu.launch` operations.

Trying to activate both LLVM and MLIR passes in mlir-cpu-runner showed name collisions when registering pass names.
One possible way of disambiguating that should also work across dialects is to prepend the dialect name to the passes that specifically operate on that dialect.
With this CL, mlir-cpu-runner tests still run when both LLVM and MLIR passes are registered

This is just a bare skeleton to start populating developer policies and
guidelines. LLVM side this would be multiple separate documents (coding
standard & programmer's manual) but starting with one and we can break it out
into multiple if the content so dictates.

This CL implements the previously unsupported parsing for Range, View and Slice operations.
A pass is introduced to lower to the LLVM.
Tests are moved out of C++ land and into mlir/test/Examples.
This allows better fitting within standard developer workflows.

Define a new dialect related to GPU kernels. Currently, it only contains a
single operation for launching a kernel on a three-dimensional grid of thread
blocks, following a model similar to that of CUDA. In particular, the body of
the kernel contains operations executed by each thread and uses region
arguments to accept thread and block identifiers (similar to how the loop body
region accepts the induction value).

Instead, fold such operations. This way callers don't need to conditionally create cast operations depending on if a value already has the target type.
Also, introduce areCastCompatible to allow cast users to verify that the generated op will be valid before creating the operation.

none-type ::= `none`
The `none` type is a unit type, i.e. a type with exactly one possible value, where its value does not have a defined dynamic representation.

Add a tutorial document explaining how to define a conversion from the Linalg
dialect to the LLVM IR dialect, bypassing the Affine dialect. It defines a
dynamic representation for a range and a view for the sake of type conversion.
Operation conversion becomes straightforward given the dynamic representation.
The code in the tutorial is better structured and better document that what we
currently have in the example, which will be updated separately.

A unit attribute is an attribute that represents a value of `unit` type. The
`unit` type allows only one value forming a singleton set. This attribute value
is used to represent attributes that only have meaning from their existence.
One example of such an attribute could be the `swift.self` attribute. This attribute indicates that a function parameter is the self/context
parameter. It could be represented as a boolean attribute(true or false), but a
value of false doesn't really bring any value. The parameter either is the
self/context or it isn't.
```mlir {.mlir}
// A unit attribute defined with the `unit` value specifier.
func @verbose_form(i1 {unitAttr : unit})
// A unit attribute can also be defined without the `unit` value specifier.
func @simple_form(i1 {unitAttr})
```
