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.

Affine expressions are designed as components of an attribute and are unique'd
in the MLIRContext. When affine expressions were implemented, uniqu'ing
objects in a context required to modify MLIRContext implementation. This is no
longer the case as generic StorageUniquer has been introduced. Port the
AffineExpr construction to use the new infrastructure by introducing an
affineUniquer into the MLIRContext.

This CL sketches what it takes for AffineExpr to fully have by-value semantics
and not be a not-so-smart pointer anymore.
This essentially makes the underyling class a simple storage struct and
implements the operations on the value type directly. Since there is no
forwarding of operations anymore, we can full isolate the storage class and
make a hard visibility barrier by moving detail::AffineExpr into
AffineExprDetail.h.
AffineExprDetail.h is only included where storage-related information is
needed.
