ops will go in a separate library).
Affine map and integer set attributes are only exposed as placeholder types
with IsA support due to the lack of C APIs for the corresponding types.
Integer and floating point attribute APIs expecting APInt and APFloat are not
exposed pending decision on how to support APInt and APFloat.

This greatly simplifies a large portion of the underlying infrastructure, allows for lookups of singleton classes to be much more efficient and always thread-safe(no locking). As a result of this, the dialect symbol registry has been removed as it is no longer necessary.
For users broken by this change, an alert was sent out(https://llvm.discourse.group/t/removing-kinds-from-attributes-and-types) that helps prevent a majority of the breakage surface area. All that should be necessary, if the advice in that alert was followed, is removing the kind passed to the ::get methods.

This revision refactors the default definition of the attribute and type `classof` methods to use the TypeID of the concrete class instead of invoking the `kindof` method. The TypeID is already used as part of uniquing, and this allows for removing the need for users to define any of the type casting utilities themselves.

Due to the original type system implementation, LLVMDialect in MLIR contains an
LLVMContext in which the relevant objects (types, metadata) are created. When
an MLIR module using the LLVM dialect (and related intrinsic-based dialects
NVVM, ROCDL, AVX512) is converted to LLVM IR, it could only live in the
LLVMContext owned by the dialect. The type system no longer relies on the
LLVMContext, so this limitation can be removed. Instead, translation functions
now take a reference to an LLVMContext in which the LLVM IR module should be
constructed. The caller of the translation functions is responsible for
ensuring the same LLVMContext is not used concurrently as the translation no
longer uses a dialect-wide context lock.
As an additional bonus, this change removes the need to recreate the LLVM IR
module in a different LLVMContext through printing and parsing back, decreasing
the compilation overhead in JIT and GPU-kernel-to-blob passes.

Unit attributes are given meaning by their existence, and thus have no meaningful value beyond "is it present". As such, in the format of an operation unit attributes are generally used to guard the printing of other elements and aren't generally printed themselves; as the presence of the group when parsing means that the unit attribute should be added. This revision adds support to the declarative format for eliding unit attributes in situations where they anchor an optional group, but aren't the first element.
For example,
```
let assemblyFormat = "(`is_optional` $unit_attr^)? attr-dict";
```
would print `foo.op is_optional` when $unit_attr is present, instead of the current `foo.op is_optional unit`.

The current output is a bit clunky and requires including files+macros everywhere, or manually wrapping the file inclusion in a registration function. This revision refactors the pass backend to automatically generate `registerFooPass`/`registerFooPasses` functions that wrap the pass registration. `gen-pass-decls` now takes a `-name` input that specifies a tag name for the group of passes that are being generated. For each pass, the generator now produces a `registerFooPass` where `Foo` is the name of the definition specified in tablegen. It also generates a `registerGroupPasses`, where `Group` is the tag provided via the `-name` input parameter, that registers all of the passes present.

Introduce support for mutable storage in the StorageUniquer infrastructure.
This makes MLIR have key-value storage instead of just uniqued key storage. A
storage instance now contains a unique immutable key and a mutable value, both
stored in the arena allocator that belongs to the context. This is a
preconditio for supporting recursive types that require delayed initialization,
in particular LLVM structure types. The functionality is exercised in the test
pass with trivial self-recursive type. So far, recursive types can only be
printed in parsed in a closed type system. Removing this restriction is left

Some dialects have semantics which is not well represented by common
SSA structures with dominance constraints. This patch allows
operations to declare the 'kind' of their contained regions.
Currently, two kinds are allowed: "SSACFG" and "Graph". The only
difference between them at the moment is that SSACFG regions are
required to have dominance, while Graph regions are not required to
have dominance. The intention is that this Interface would be
generated by ODS for existing operations, although this has not yet
been implemented. Presumably, if someone were interested in code
generation, we might also have a "CFG" dialect, which defines control
flow, but does not require SSA.
The new behavior is mostly identical to the previous behavior, since
registered operations without a RegionKindInterface are assumed to
contain SSACFG regions. However, the behavior has changed for
unregistered operations. Previously, these were checked for
dominance, however the new behavior allows dominance violations, in
order to allow the processing of unregistered dialects with Graph
regions. One implication of this is that regions in unregistered
operations with more than one op are no longer CSE'd (since it
requires dominance info).
I've also reorganized the LangRef documentation to remove assertions
about "sequential execution", "SSA Values", and "Dominance". Instead,
the core IR is simply "ordered" (i.e. totally ordered) and consists of
"Values". I've also clarified some things about how control flow
passes between blocks in an SSACFG region. Control Flow must enter a
region at the entry block and follow terminator operation successors
or be returned to the containing op. Graph regions do not define a
notion of control flow.

`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.

Initially, unranked memref descriptors in the LLVM dialect were designed only
to be passed into functions. An assertion was guarding against returning
unranked memrefs from functions in the standard-to-LLVM conversion. This is
insufficient for functions that wish to return an unranked memref such that the
caller does not know the rank in advance, and hence cannot allocate the
descriptor and pass it in as an argument.
Introduce a calling convention for returning unranked memref descriptors as
follows. An unranked memref descriptor always points to a ranked memref
descriptor stored on stack of the current function. When an unranked memref
descriptor is returned from a function, the ranked memref descriptor it points
to is copied to dynamically allocated memory, the ownership of which is
transferred to the caller. The caller is responsible for deallocating the
dynamically allocated memory and for copying the pointed-to ranked memref
descriptor onto its stack.
Provide default lowerings for std.return, std.call and std.indirect_call that
maintain the conversion defined above.
This convention is additionally exercised by a runtime test to guard against
memory errors.

This revision adds a new support header, InterfaceSupport, to contain various generic bits of functionality for implementing "Interfaces". Interfaces embody a mechanism for attaching concept-based polymorphism to a type system. With this refactoring a new InterfaceMap type is added to allow for efficient interface lookups without going through an indirect call. This should provide a decent performance speedup without changing the size of AbstractOperation.
In a future revision, this functionality will also be used to bring Interface like functionality to Attributes and Types.

This revision removes the TypeConverter parameter passed to the apply* methods, and instead moves the responsibility of region type conversion to patterns. The types of a region can be converted using the 'convertRegionTypes' method, which acts similarly to the existing 'applySignatureConversion'. This method ensures that all blocks within, and including those moved into, a region will have the block argument types converted using the provided converter.
This has the benefit of making more of the legalization logic controlled by patterns, instead of being handled explicitly by the driver. It also opens up the possibility to support multiple type conversions at some point in the future.
This revision also adds a new utility class `FailureOr<T>` that provides a LogicalResult friendly facility for returning a failure or a valid result value.

In the affine symbol and dimension check, the code currently assumes
`getAffineScope` and its users `isValidDim` and `isValidSymbol` are only called

This is not necessarily the case, and these functions may be called on valid IR
that does not satisfy this assumption. Return `nullptr` from `getAffineScope`
if there is no parent op with `AffineScope` trait. Treat this case
conservatively in `isValidSymbol` by only accepting as symbols the values that
are guaranteed to be symbols (constants, and certain operations). No
modifications are necessary to `isValidDim` that delegates most of the work to
`isValidDim`.
