This patch removes the implementation of TypedAttr and ElementsAttr
from DenseArrayAttr and, in doing so, removes the need store a shaped
type. The attribute now stores a size (number of elements), an MLIR type
as a discriminator, and a raw byte array.
The intent of DenseArrayAttr was not to be a drop-in replacement for DenseElementsAttr. It was meant to be a simple container of integers or floats that map to C++ types. The ElementsAttr implementation on DenseArrayAttr had many holes in it, and fixing those holes would require evolving DenseArrayAttr in a way that is incompatible with its original purpose.

This adds bytecode support for DenseArrayAttr, DenseIntOrFpElementsAttr,
DenseStringElementsAttr, and SparseElementsAttr.

Resources are encoded in two separate sections similarly to
attributes/types, one for the actual data and one for the data
offsets. Unlike other sections, the resource sections are optional
given that in many cases they won't be present. For testing,
bytecode serialization is added for DenseResourceElementsAttr.

After this commit we will have an efficient bytecode representation for all
of the builtin types.

Group the readers and writers for individual attributes/types together,
which makes the encoding more readable.

Dialects can opt-in to providing custom encodings by implementing the
`BytecodeDialectInterface`. This interface provides hooks, namely
`readAttribute`/`readType` and `writeAttribute`/`writeType`, that will be used
by the bytecode reader and writer. These hooks are provided a reader and writer
implementation that can be used to encode various constructs in the underlying
bytecode format. A unique feature of this interface is that dialects may choose
to only encode a subset of their attributes and types in a custom bytecode
format, which can simplify adding new or experimental components that aren't
fully baked.
