I'm planning to remove StringRef::equals in favor of
StringRef::operator==.
- StringRef::operator==/!= outnumber StringRef::equals by a factor of
10 under mlir/ in terms of their usage.
- The elimination of StringRef::equals brings StringRef closer to
std::string_view, which has operator== but not equals.
- S == "foo" is more readable than S.equals("foo"), especially for
!Long.Expression.equals("str") vs Long.Expression != "str".
This allows discouraging the use of specific build methods of an op by having TableGen generate C++ code, instructing the C++ compiler to warn on use of the `build` method.
The implementation uses the C++14 `[[deprecated(...)]]`` for this purpose. I considered using `LLVM_DEPRECATED`, but thought requiring a fix-it was not necassery, nor would the syntax in ODS have been very nice.
My motivation for this change is that in the future I'd like to deprecate the use `build` methods in the LLVM Dialect, not using explicit pointer types for ops such as `llvm.load` or `llvm.alloca`, which makes the code not future proof for opaque pointers. In-tree has to be clean first before I could commit such a change of course, but I thought the initial infrastructure change could already be submitted.

This patch mechanically replaces None with std::nullopt where the
compiler would warn if None were deprecated. The intent is to reduce
the amount of manual work required in migrating from Optional to
std::optional.
This is part of an effort to migrate from llvm::Optional to
std::optional:

This differential improves two error conditions, by detecting them earlier and by providing better messages to help users understand what went wrong.

This removes the need for OpDefinitionsGen to use raw tablegen API, and will also
simplify adding builders to TypeDefs as well.
