Replace all `linalg.indexed_generic` ops by `linalg.generic` ops that access the iteration indices using the `linalg.index` op.

Given the source and destination shapes, if they are static, or if the
expanded/collapsed dimensions are unit-extent, it is possible to
compute the reassociation maps that can be used to reshape one type
into another. Add a utility method to return the reassociation maps
when possible.
This utility function can be used to fuse a sequence of reshape ops,
given the type of the source of the producer and the final result
type. This pattern supercedes a more constrained folding pattern added
to DropUnitDims pass.

The `linalg.index` operation provides access to the iteration indexes of immediately enclosing linalg operations. It takes a dimension `dim` attribute and returns the iteration index in the given dimension. Having `linalg.index` allows us to unify `linalg.generic` and `linalg.indexed_generic` and also enables index access in named operations.

Recent change enable dropping unit-trip loops of "reduction" iterator
type as well. This is fine as long as there is one other "reduction"
iterator in the operation. Without this the initialized value (value
of `out`) is not read which leads to a correctness issue.
Also fix a bug in the `fill` -> `tensor_reshape` folding. The `out`
operand of the `fill` needs to be reshaped to get the `out` operand of
the generated `fill` operation.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D100145
A new `InterfaceMethod` is added to `InferShapedTypeOpInterface` that
allows an operation to return the `Value`s for each dim of its
results. It is intended for the case where the `Value` returned for
each dim is computed using the operands and operation attributes. This
interface method is for cases where the result dim of an operation can
be computed independently, and it avoids the need to aggregate all
dims of a result into a single shape value. This also implies that
this is not suitable for cases where the result type is unranked (for
which the existing interface methods is to be used).
Also added is a canonicalization pattern that uses this interface and
resolves the shapes of the output in terms of the shapes of the
inputs. Moving Linalg ops to use this interface, so that many
canonicalization patterns implemented for individual linalg ops to
achieve the same result can be removed in favor of the added
canonicalization pattern.

To match an interface or trait, users currently have to use the `MatchAny` tag. This tag can be quite problematic for compile time for things like the canonicalizer, as the `MatchAny` patterns may get applied to *every* operation. This revision adds better support by bucketing interface/trait patterns based on which registered operations have them registered. This means that moving forward we will only attempt to match these patterns to operations that have this interface registered. Two simplify defining patterns that match traits and interfaces, two new utility classes have been added: OpTraitRewritePattern and OpInterfaceRewritePattern.

The SubTensorInsertOp has a requirement that dest type and result
type match. Just folding the tensor.cast operation violates this and
creates verification errors during canonicalization. Also fix other
canonicalization methods that werent inserting casts properly.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D97800
This enables this kind of construct in the DSL to generate a named op that is polymorphic over numeric type variables `T` and `U`, generating the correct arithmetic casts at construction time:
```
@tc_def_op
def polymorphic_matmul(A=TensorDef(T1, S.M, S.K),
B=TensorDef(T2, S.K, S.N),
C=TensorDef(U, S.M, S.N, output=True)):
implements(ContractionOpInterface)
C[D.m, D.n] += cast(U, A[D.m, D.k]) * cast(U, B[D.k, D.n])
```
Presently, this only supports type variables that are bound to the element type of one of the arguments, although a further extension that allows binding a type variable to an attribute would allow some more expressiveness and may be useful for some formulations. This is left to a future patch. In addition, this patch does not yet materialize the verifier support which ensures that types are bound correctly (for such simple examples, failing to do so will yield IR that fails verification, it just won't yet fail with a precise error).
Note that the full grid of extensions/truncation/int<->float conversions are supported, but many of them are lossy and higher level code needs to be mindful of numerics (it is not the job of this level).
As-is, this should be sufficient for most integer matmul scenarios we work with in typical quantization schemes.

* It was decided that this was the end of the line for the existing custom tc parser/generator, and this is the first step to replacing it with a declarative format that maps well to mathy source languages.
* One such source language is implemented here: https://github.com/stellaraccident/mlir-linalgpy/blob/main/samples/mm.py
* In fact, this is the exact source of the declarative `polymorphic_matmul` in this change.
* I am working separately to clean this python implementation up and add it to MLIR (probably as `mlir.tools.linalg_opgen` or equiv). The scope of the python side is greater than just generating named ops: the ops are callable and directly emit `linalg.generic` ops fully dynamically, and this is intended to be a feature for frontends like npcomp to define custom linear algebra ops at runtime.
* There is more work required to handle full type polymorphism, especially with respect to integer formulations, since they require more specificity wrt types.
* Followups to this change will bring the new generator to feature parity with the current one and delete the current. Roughly, this involves adding support for interface declarations and attribute symbol bindings.

This revision connects the generated sparse code with an actual
sparse storage scheme, which can be initialized from a test file.
Lacking a first-class citizen SparseTensor type (with buffer),
the storage is hidden behind an opaque pointer with some "glue"
to bring the pointer back to tensor land. Rather than generating
sparse setup code for each different annotated tensor (viz. the
"pack" methods in TACO), a single "one-size-fits-all" implementation
has been added to the runtime support library. Many details and
abstractions need to be refined in the future, but this revision
allows full end-to-end integration testing and performance
benchmarking (with on one end, an annotated Lingalg
op and, on the other end, a JIT/AOT executable).

Add printer and parser hooks for a custom directive that allows
parsing and printing of idioms that can represent a list of values
each of which is either an integer or an SSA value. For example in
`subview %source[%offset_0, 1] [4, %size_1] [%stride_0, 3]`
each of the list (which represents offset, size and strides) is a mix
of either statically know integer values or dynamically computed SSA

The existing verification of reshape ops in linalg (linalg.reshape and
linalg.tensor_reshape) allows specification of illegal ops, where
- A dynamic dimension is expanded into multiple dynamic
dimensions. This is ill-specified.
- A static dimension is expanded into dynamic dimension or viceversa,
- The product of extents of the static dimensions in the expanded type
doesnt match the static dimension of the collapsed type.
Making all of these illegal. This also implies that some pessimization
in canonicalization due to incomplete semantics of the operation can
be dropped.

This revision drops init_tensor arguments from Linalg on tensors and instead uniformizes the output buffers and output tensors to be consistent.
This significantly simplifies the usage of Linalg on tensors and is a stepping stone for

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D93469
This operation is used to materialize a tensor of a particular
shape. The shape could be specified as a mix of static and dynamic
values.
The use of this operation is to be an `init` tensor for Linalg
structured operation on tensors where the bounds of the computation
depends on the shape of the output of the linalg operation. The result
of this operation will be used as the `init` tensor of such Linalg
operations. To note,
1) The values in the tensor materialized is not used. Any operation to
which this is an init tensor is expected to overwrite the entire
tensor.
2) The tensor is materialized only for the shape of the output and to
make the loop bounds depend only on operands of the structured
operation.
Based on (1) and (2) it is assumed that these operations eventually go
away since they are only used in `dim` operations that can be
canonicalized to make this operation dead. Such canonicalization are
added here too.

The LinalgDependenceGraph and alias analysis provide the necessary analysis for the Linalg fusion on buffers case.
However this is not enough for linalg on tensors which require proper memory effects to play nicely with DCE and other transformations.
This revision adds side effects to Linalg ops that were previously missing and has 2 consequences:
1. one example in the copy removal pass now fails since the linalg.generic op has side effects and the pass does not perform alias analysis / distinguish between reads and writes.
2. a few examples in fusion-tensor.mlir need to return the resulting tensor otherwise DCE automatically kicks in as part of greedy pattern application.

Adds support for
- Dropping unit dimension loops for indexed_generic ops.
- Folding consecutive folding (or expanding) reshapes when the result

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D90118
The current fusion on tensors fuses reshape ops with generic ops by
linearizing the indexing maps of the fused tensor in the generic
op. This has some limitations
- It only works for static shapes
- The resulting indexing map has a linearization that would be
potentially prevent fusion later on (for ex. tile + fuse).
Instead, try to fuse the reshape consumer (producer) with generic op
producer (consumer) by expanding the dimensionality of the generic op
when the reshape is expanding (folding). This approach conflicts with
the linearization approach. The expansion method is used instead of
the linearization method.
Further refactoring that changes the fusion on tensors to be a
collection of patterns.

This revision adds init_tensors support to buffer allocation for Linalg on tensors.
Currently makes the assumption that the init_tensors fold onto the first output tensors.
This assumption is not currently enforced or cast in stone and requires experimenting with tiling linalg on tensors for ops **without reductions**.

This canonicalization is the counterpart of MemRefCastOp -> LinalgOp but on tensors.

While affine maps are part of the builtin memref type, there is very

This revision allows representing a reduction at the level of linalg on tensors for named ops. When a structured op has a reduction and returns tensor(s), new conventions are added and documented.
As an illustration, the syntax for a `linalg.matmul` writing into a buffer is:
```
linalg.matmul ins(%a, %b : memref<?x?xf32>, tensor<?x?xf32>)
outs(%c : memref<?x?xf32>)
```
, whereas the syntax for a `linalg.matmul` returning a new tensor is:
```
%d = linalg.matmul ins(%a, %b : tensor<?x?xf32>, memref<?x?xf32>)
init(%c : memref<?x?xf32>)
-> tensor<?x?xf32>
```
Other parts of linalg will be extended accordingly to allow mixed buffer/tensor semantics in the presence of reductions.
Now backends spell out which namespace they want to be in, instead of relying on
clients #including them inside already-opened namespaces. This also means that
cppNamespaces should be fully qualified, and there's no implicit "::mlir::"
prepended to them anymore.

The tensor_reshape op was only fusible only if it is a collapsing case. Now we
propagate the op to all the operands so there is a further chance to fuse it
with generic op. The pre-conditions are:
1) The producer is not an indexed_generic op.
2) All the shapes of the operands are the same.
3) All the indexing maps are identity.
4) All the loops are parallel loops.
5) The producer has a single user.
It is possible to fuse the ops if the producer is an indexed_generic op. We
still can compute the original indices. E.g., if the reshape op collapses the d0
and d1, we can use DimOp to get the width of d1, and calculate the index
`d0 * width + d1`. Then replace all the uses with it. However, this pattern is
not implemented in the patch.
