This extension to the sparse tensor type system in MLIR
opens up a whole new set of sparse storage schemes, such as
block sparse storage (e.g. BCSR) and ELL (aka jagged diagonals).
This revision merely introduces the type extension and
initial documentation. The actual interpretation of the type
(reading in tensors, lowering to code, etc.) will follow.

A very elaborate, but also very fun revision because all
puzzle pieces are finally "falling in place".
1. replaces lingalg annotations + flags with proper sparse tensor types
2. add rigorous verification on sparse tensor type and sparse primitives
3. removes glue and clutter on opaque pointers in favor of sparse tensor types
4. migrates all tests to use sparse tensor types
NOTE: next CL will remove *all* obsoleted sparse code in Linalg

(1) migrates the encoding from TensorDialect into the new SparseTensorDialect
(2) replaces dictionary-based storage and builders with struct-like data
