With the exceptions of AttrOrTypeParameter and DerivedAttr, all of MLIR consistently uses $_ctxt as the substitute variable for the MLIRContext in TableGen C++ code.
Usually this does not matter unless one where to reuse some code in multiple fields but it is still needlessly inconsistent and prone to error.
This patch fixes that by consistently using _$ctxt everywhere.

This patch adds a `convertFromStorage` field to attribute or type parameters that can implement more complex logic for converting from the parameter's C++ storage type (e.g. `Optional<SmallVector<T>>`) to its C++ type (e.g. `Optional<ArrayRef<T>>`).

The current documentation is super old, crusty, and at times wrong. This commit
rewrites the documentation to focus on the TableGen declarative definition,
expounds on various components, and moves the doc out of Tutorials/ and into
a new top level `AttributesAndTypes.md` doc. As part of this, the AttrDef/TypeDef
documentation in OpDefinitions.md is removed.
