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 reverts commit 9f24640b7e.
We hit some dead-locks on thread exit in some configurations: TLS exit handler is taking a lock.
Temporarily reverting this change as we're debugging what is going on.
This class allows for defining thread local objects that have a set non-static lifetime. This internals of the cache use a static thread_local map between the various different non-static objects and the desired value type. When a non-static object destructs, it simply nulls out the entry in the static map. This will leave an entry in the map, but erase any of the data for the associated value. The current use cases for this are in the MLIRContext, meaning that the number of items in the static map is ~1-2 which aren't particularly costly enough to warrant the complexity of pruning. If a use case arises that requires pruning of the map, the functionality can be added.
This is especially useful in the context of MLIR for implementing thread-local caching of context level objects that would otherwise have very high lock contention. This revision adds a thread local cache in the MLIRContext for attributes, identifiers, and types to reduce some of the locking burden. This led to a speedup of several hundred miliseconds when compiling a conversion pass on a very large mlir module(>300K operations).

This allows for bucketing the different possible storage types, with each bucket having its own allocator/mutex/instance map. This greatly reduces the amount of lock contention when multi-threading is enabled. On some non-trivial .mlir modules (>300K operations), this led to a compile time decrease of a single conversion pass by around half a second(>25%).

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
for future work.

This is useful for several reasons:
* In some situations the user can guarantee that thread-safety isn't necessary and don't want to pay the cost of synchronization, e.g., when parsing a very large module.
* For things like logging threading is not desirable as the output is not guaranteed to be in stable order.
This flag also subsumes the pass manager flag for multi-threading.

Summary: std::function has a notoriously large amount of malloc traffic, whereas function_ref is a cheaper and more efficient alternative.
