This is part of a larger refactoring the better congregates the builtin structures under the BuiltinDialect. This also removes the problematic "standard" naming that clashes with the "standard" dialect, which is not defined within IR/. A temporary forward is placed in StandardTypes.h to allow time for downstream users to replaced references.

`llvm.mlir.constant` was originally introduced as an LLVM dialect counterpart
to `std.constant`. As such, it was supporting "function pointer" constants
derived from the symbol name. This is different from `std.constant` that allows
for creation of a "function" constant since MLIR, unlike LLVM IR, supports
this. Later, `llvm.mlir.addressof` was introduced as an Op that obtains a
constant pointer to a global in the LLVM dialect. It naturally extends to
functions (in LLVM IR, functions are globals) and should be used for defining
"function pointer" values instead.
Fixes PR46344.

Similarly to actual LLVM IR, and to `llvm.mlir.func`, allow the custom syntax
of `llvm.mlir.global` to omit the linkage keyword. If omitted, the linkage is
assumed to be external. This makes the modeling of globals in the LLVM dialect
more consistent, both within the dialect and with LLVM IR.

Summary:
LLVM IR functions can have arbitrary attributes attached to them, some of which
affect may affect code transformations. Until we can model all attributes
consistently, provide a pass-through mechanism that forwards attributes from
the LLVMFuncOp in MLIR to LLVM IR functions during translation. This mechanism
relies on LLVM IR being able to recognize string representations of the
attributes and performs some additional checking to avoid hitting assertions
within LLVM code.

Summary:
This revision performs a lot of different cleanups on operation documentation to ensure that they are consistent, e.g. using mlir code blocks, formatting, etc.
This revision also includes the auto-generated documentation into the hand-written documentation for the dialects that have a specific top-level dialect file. This updates the documentation for all dialects aside from SPIRV and STD. These dialects will be updated in a followup.
