The MLIR classes Type/Attribute/Operation/Op/Value support
cast/dyn_cast/isa/dyn_cast_or_null functionality through llvm's doCast
functionality in addition to defining methods with the same name.
This change begins the migration of uses of the method to the
corresponding function call as has been decided as more consistent.
Note that there still exist classes that only define methods directly,
such as AffineExpr, and this does not include work currently to support
a functional cast/isa call.
Caveats include:
- This clang-tidy script probably has more problems.
- This only touches C++ code, so nothing that is being generated.
Context:
- https://mlir.llvm.org/deprecation/ at "Use the free function variants
for dyn_cast/cast/isa/…"
- Original discussion at https://discourse.llvm.org/t/preferred-casting-style-going-forward/68443
Implementation:
This first patch was created with the following steps. The intention is
to only do automated changes at first, so I waste less time if it's
reverted, and so the first mass change is more clear as an example to
other teams that will need to follow similar steps.
Steps are described per line, as comments are removed by git:
0. Retrieve the change from the following to build clang-tidy with an
additional check:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/compare/main...tpopp:llvm-project:tidy-cast-check
1. Build clang-tidy
2. Run clang-tidy over your entire codebase while disabling all checks
and enabling the one relevant one. Run on all header files also.
3. Delete .inc files that were also modified, so the next build rebuilds
them to a pure state.
4. Some changes have been deleted for the following reasons:
- Some files had a variable also named cast
- Some files had not included a header file that defines the cast
functions
- Some files are definitions of the classes that have the casting
methods, so the code still refers to the method instead of the
function without adding a prefix or removing the method declaration
at the same time.

* https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-removing-the-quant-dialect/3643/8
* Removes most ops. Leaves casts given final comment (can remove more in a followup).
* There are a few uses in Tosa keeping some of the utilities alive. In a followup, I will probably elect to just move simplified versions of them into Tosa itself vs having this quasi-library dependency.

`verifyConstructionInvariants` is intended to allow for verifying the invariants of an attribute/type on construction, and `getChecked` is intended to enable more graceful error handling aside from an assert. There are a few problems with the current implementation of these methods:
* `verifyConstructionInvariants` requires an mlir::Location for emitting errors, which is prohibitively costly in the situations that would most likely use them, e.g. the parser.
This creates an unfortunate code duplication between the verifier code and the parser code, given that the parser operates on llvm::SMLoc and it is an undesirable overhead to pre-emptively convert from that to an mlir::Location.
* `getChecked` effectively requires duplicating the definition of the `get` method, creating a quite clunky workflow due to the subtle different in its signature.
This revision aims to talk the above problems by refactoring the implementation to use a callback for error emission. Using a callback allows for deferring the costly part of error emission until it is actually necessary.
Due to the necessary signature change in each instance of these methods, this revision also takes this opportunity to cleanup the definition of these methods by:
* restructuring the signature of `getChecked` such that it can be generated from the same code block as the `get` method.
* renaming `verifyConstructionInvariants` to `verify` to match the naming scheme of the rest of the compiler.

This better matches the rest of the infrastructure, is much simpler, and makes it easier to move these types to being declaratively specified.

This is part of a larger refactoring the better congregates the builtin structures under the BuiltinDialect. This also removes the problematic "standard" naming that clashes with the "standard" dialect, which is not defined within IR/. A temporary forward is placed in StandardTypes.h to allow time for downstream users to replaced references.

Summary:
Renamed QuantOps to Quant to avoid the Ops suffix. All dialects will contain
ops, so the Ops suffix is redundant.
