mlir-translate and related tools currently have a fixed set
of flags that are built into Translation.cpp. This works for
simple cases, but some clients want to change the default
globally (e.g. default to allowing unregistered dialects
without a command line flag), or support dialect-independent
translations without having those translations register every
conceivable dialect they could be used with (breaking
modularity).
This approach could also be applied to mlirOptMain to reduce
the significant number of flags it has accumulated.

Translation.h is currently awkwardly shoved into the top-level mlir, even though it is
specific to the mlir-translate tool. This commit moves it to a new Tools/mlir-translate
directory, which is intended for libraries used to implement tools. It also splits the
translate registry from the main entry point, to more closely mirror what mlir-opt
does.
