This PR is quite similiar to #174700.
In this PR, I added a C API for each (upstream) MLIR attributes to
retrieve its name (for example, `StringAttr -> mlirStringAttrGetName()
-> "builtin.string"`), and exposed a corresponding type_name class
attribute in the Python bindings (e.g., `StringAttr.attr_name ->
"builtin.string"`). This can be used in various places to avoid
hard-coded strings, such as eliminating the manual string in
`irdl.base("#builtin.string")`.
Note that parts of this PR (mainly mechanical changes) were produced via
GitHub Copilot and GPT-5.2. I have manually reviewed the changes and
verified them with tests to ensure correctness.

This patch adds the `#gpu.kernel_metadata` and `#gpu.kernel_table`
attributes. The `#gpu.kernel_metadata` attribute allows storing metadata
related to a compiled kernel, for example, the number of scalar
registers used by the kernel. The attribute only has 2 required
parameters, the name and function type. It also has 2 optional
parameters, the arguments attributes and generic dictionary for storing
all other metadata.
The `#gpu.kernel_table` stores a table of `#gpu.kernel_metadata`,
mapping the name of the kernel to the metadata.
Finally, the function `ROCDL::getAMDHSAKernelsELFMetadata` was added to
collect ELF metadata from a binary, and to test the class methods in
both attributes.
Example:
```mlir
gpu.binary @binary [#gpu.object<#rocdl.target<chip = "gfx900">, kernels = #gpu.kernel_table<[
#gpu.kernel_metadata<"kernel0", (i32) -> (), metadata = {sgpr_count = 255}>,
#gpu.kernel_metadata<"kernel1", (i32, f32) -> (), arg_attrs = [{llvm.read_only}, {}]>
]> , bin = "BLOB">]
```
The motivation behind these attributes is to provide useful information
for things like tunning.
