This support has never really worked well, and is incredibly clunky to
use (it effectively creates two argument APIs), and clunky to generate (it isn't
clear how we should actually expose this from PDL frontends). Treating these
as just attribute arguments is much much cleaner in every aspect of the stack.
If we need to optimize lots of constant parameters, it would be better to
investigate internal representation optimizations (e.g. batch attribute creation),
that do not affect the user (we want a clean external API).

This commits adds a C++ generator to PDLL that generates wrapper PDL patterns
directly usable in C++ code, and also generates the definitions of native constraints/rewrites
that have code bodies specified in PDLL. This generator is effectively the PDLL equivalent of
the current DRR generator, and will allow easy replacement of DRR patterns with PDLL patterns.
A followup will start to utilize this for end-to-end integration testing and show case how to
use this as a drop-in replacement for DRR tablegen usage.
