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.

Summary:
This revision performs a few refactorings on the main docs folder. Namely it:
* Adds a new Rationale/ folder to contain various rationale documents
* Moves several "getting started" documents to the Tutorials/ folder
* Cleans up the titles of various documents

Summary: In some situations the name of the attribute is not representable as a bare-identifier, this revision adds support for those cases by formatting the name as a string instead. This has the added benefit of removing the identifier regex from the verifier.

Thus far IntegerType has been signless: a value of IntegerType does
not have a sign intrinsically and it's up to the specific operation
to decide how to interpret those bits. For example, std.addi does
two's complement arithmetic, and std.divis/std.diviu treats the first
bit as a sign.
This design choice was made some time ago when we did't have lots
of dialects and dialects were more rigid. Today we have much more
extensible infrastructure and different dialect may want different
modelling over integer signedness. So while we can say we want
signless integers in the standard dialect, we cannot dictate for
others. Requiring each dialect to model the signedness semantics
with another set of custom types is duplicating the functionality
everywhere, considering the fundamental role integer types play.
This CL extends the IntegerType with a signedness semantics bit.
This gives each dialect an option to opt in signedness semantics
if that's what they want and helps code sharing. The parser is
modified to recognize `si[1-9][0-9]*` and `ui[1-9][0-9]*` as
signed and unsigned integer types, respectively, leaving the
original `i[1-9][0-9]*` to continue to mean no indication over
signedness semantics. All existing dialects are not affected (yet)
as this is a feature to opt in.

Summary: The current syntax for AffineMapAttr and IntegerSetAttr conflict with function types, making it currently impossible to round-trip function types(and e.g. FuncOp) in the IR. This revision changes the syntax for the attributes by wrapping them in a keyword. AffineMapAttr is wrapped with `affine_map<>` and IntegerSetAttr is wrapped with `affine_set<>`.
