Since version 0.7 we've added:

* Added a new command to view intermediate PDLL output
This commit enables providing long-form documentation more seamlessly to the LSP

descriptions and attach them to decls when possible. For PDLL constructs, the LSP will
now try to provide documentation by parsing the comments directly above the decls

`enableDocumentation` that gates the import and attachment of ODS documentation,
which is unnecessary in the normal build process (i.e. it should only be used/consumed

This commit defines a dataflow analysis for integer ranges, which
uses a newly-added InferIntRangeInterface to compute the lower and
upper bounds on the results of an operation from the bounds on the
arguments. The range inference is a flow-insensitive dataflow analysis
that can be used to simplify code, such as by statically identifying
bounds checks that cannot fail in order to eliminate them.
The InferIntRangeInterface has one method, inferResultRanges(), which
takes a vector of inferred ranges for each argument to an op
implementing the interface and a callback allowing the implementation
to define the ranges for each result. These ranges are stored as
ConstantIntRanges, which hold the lower and upper bounds for a
value. Bounds are tracked separately for the signed and unsigned
interpretations of a value, which ensures that the impact of
arithmetic overflows is correctly tracked during the analysis.
The commit also adds a -test-int-range-inference pass to test the
analysis until it is integrated into SCCP or otherwise exposed.
Finally, this commit fixes some bugs relating to the handling of
region iteration arguments and terminators in the data flow analysis
framework.

* Users of LLVM as a library will now default to opaque pointers.

The trick of using an empty token in the `FOREVERY_O` x-macro relies on preprocessor behavior which is only standard since C99 6.10.3/4 and C++11 N3290 16.3/4 (whereas it was undefined behavior up through C++03 16.3/10). Since the `ExecutionEngine/SparseTensorUtils.cpp` file is required to be compile-able under C++98 compatibility mode (unlike the C++11 used elsewhere in MLIR), we shouldn't rely on that behavior.
Also, using a non-empty suffix helps improve uniformity of the API, since all other primary/overhead suffixes are also non-empty. I'm using the suffix `0` since that's the value used by the `SparseTensorEncoding` attribute for indicating the index overhead-type.

Vectorization is a key transformation to achieve high performance on most

parameterizable transform op. It currently applies to a scope of payload IR
delimited by some isolated-from-above op, mainly because several enabling
transformations (such as affine simplification) are needed to perform
vectorization and these transformation would apply to ops other than the "main"
computational payload op. A separate "navigation" transform op that obtains the
isolated-from-above ancestor of an op is introduced in the core transform
dialect. Even though it is currently only useful for vectorization,
isolated-from-above ops are a common anchor for transformations (usually
implemented as passes) that is likely to be reused in the future.

This diff modifies `mlir-tblgen` to generate Python Operation class `__init__()`
functions that use Python keyword-only arguments.
Previously, all `__init__()` function arguments were positional. Python code to
create MLIR Operations was required to provide values for ALL builder arguments,
including optional arguments (attributes and operands). Callers that did not
provide, for example, an optional attribute would be forced to provide `None`
as an argument for EACH optional attribute. Proposed changes in this diff use
`tblgen` record information (as provided by ODS) to generate keyword arguments
for:
- optional operands
- optional attributes (which includes unit attributes)
- default-valued attributes
These `__init__()` function keyword arguments have default `None` values (i.e.
the argument form is `optionalAttr=None`), allowing callers to create Operations
more easily.
Note that since optional arguments become keyword-only arguments (since they are
placed after the bare `*` argument), this diff will require ALL optional
operands and attributes to be provided using explicit keyword syntax. This may,
in the short term, break any out-of-tree Python code that provided values via
positional arguments. However, in the long term, it seems that requiring
keywords for optional arguments will be more robust to operation changes that
add arguments.
Tests were modified to reflect the updated Operation builder calling convention.

This change adds a new op `alloc_tensor` to the bufferization dialect. During bufferization, this op is always lowered to a buffer allocation (unless it is "eliminated" by a pre-processing pass). It is useful to have such an op in tensor land, because it allows users to model tensor SSA use-def chains (which drive bufferization decisions) and because tensor SSA use-def chains can be analyzed by One-Shot Bufferize, while memref values cannot.
This change also replaces all uses of linalg.init_tensor in bufferization-related code with bufferization.alloc_tensor.
linalg.init_tensor and bufferization.alloc_tensor are similar, but the purpose of the former one is just to carry a shape. It does not indicate a memory allocation.
linalg.init_tensor is not suitable for modelling SSA use-def chains for bufferization purposes, because linalg.init_tensor is marked as not having side effects (in contrast to alloc_tensor). As such, it is legal to move linalg.init_tensor ops around/CSE them/etc. This is not desirable for alloc_tensor; it represents an explicit buffer allocation while still in tensor land and such allocations should not suddenly disappear or get moved around when running the canonicalizer/CSE/etc.
