This PR allows out-of-tree dialects to write Python dialect modules
using nanobind instead of pybind11.
It may make sense to migrate in-tree dialects and some of the ODS Python
infrastructure to nanobind, but that is a topic for a future change.
This PR makes the following changes:
* adds nanobind to the CMake and Bazel build systems. We also add
robin_map to the Bazel build, which is a dependency of nanobind.
* adds a PYTHON_BINDING_LIBRARY option to various CMake functions, such
as declare_mlir_python_extension, allowing users to select a Python
binding library.
* creates a fork of mlir/include/mlir/Bindings/Python/PybindAdaptors.h
named NanobindAdaptors.h. This plays the same role, using nanobind
instead of pybind11.
* splits CollectDiagnosticsToStringScope out of PybindAdaptors.h and
into a new header mlir/include/mlir/Bindings/Python/Diagnostics.h, since
it is code that is no way related to pybind11 or for that matter,
Python.
* changed the standalone Python extension example to have both pybind11
and nanobind variants.
* changed mlir/python/mlir/dialects/python_test.py to have both pybind11
and nanobind variants.
Notes:
* A slightly unfortunate thing that I needed to do in the CMake
integration was to use FindPython in addition to FindPython3, since
nanobind's CMake integration expects the Python_ names for variables.
Perhaps there's a better way to do this.
This PR adds "value casting", i.e., a mechanism to wrap `ir.Value` in a
proxy class that overloads dunders such as `__add__`, `__sub__`, and
`__mul__` for fun and great profit.
This is thematically similar to
bfb1ba7526
and
9566ee2806.
The example in the test demonstrates the value of the feature (no pun
intended):
```python
@register_value_caster(F16Type.static_typeid)
@register_value_caster(F32Type.static_typeid)
@register_value_caster(F64Type.static_typeid)
@register_value_caster(IntegerType.static_typeid)
class ArithValue(Value):
__add__ = partialmethod(_binary_op, op="add")
__sub__ = partialmethod(_binary_op, op="sub")
__mul__ = partialmethod(_binary_op, op="mul")
a = arith.constant(value=FloatAttr.get(f16_t, 42.42))
b = a + a
# CHECK: ArithValue(%0 = arith.addf %cst, %cst : f16)
print(b)
a = arith.constant(value=FloatAttr.get(f32_t, 42.42))
b = a - a
# CHECK: ArithValue(%1 = arith.subf %cst_0, %cst_0 : f32)
print(b)
a = arith.constant(value=FloatAttr.get(f64_t, 42.42))
b = a * a
# CHECK: ArithValue(%2 = arith.mulf %cst_1, %cst_1 : f64)
print(b)
```
**EDIT**: this now goes through the bindings and thus supports automatic
casting of `OpResult` (including as an element of `OpResultList`),
`BlockArgument` (including as an element of `BlockArgumentList`), as
well as `Value`.

This diff uses `MlirTypeID` to register `TypeCaster`s (i.e., `[](PyType pyType) -> DerivedTy { return pyType; }`) for all concrete types (i.e., `PyConcrete<...>`) that are then queried for (by `MlirTypeID`) and called in `struct type_caster<MlirType>::cast`. The result is that anywhere an `MlirType mlirType` is returned from a python binding, that `mlirType` is automatically cast to the correct concrete type. For example:
```
c0 = arith.ConstantOp(f32, 0.0)
# CHECK: F32Type(f32)
print(repr(c0.result.type))
unranked_tensor_type = UnrankedTensorType.get(f32)
unranked_tensor = tensor.FromElementsOp(unranked_tensor_type, [c0]).result
# CHECK: UnrankedTensorType
print(type(unranked_tensor.type).__name__)
# CHECK: UnrankedTensorType(tensor<*xf32>)
print(repr(unranked_tensor.type))
```
This functionality immediately extends to typed attributes (i.e., `attr.type`).
The diff also implements similar functionality for `mlir_type_subclass`es but in a slightly different way - for such types (which have no cpp corresponding `class` or `struct`) the user must provide a type caster in python (similar to how `AttrBuilder` works) or in cpp as a `py::cpp_function`.

This diff adds python bindings for `MlirTypeID`. It paves the way for returning accurately typed `Type`s from python APIs (see D150927) and then further along building type "conscious" `Value` APIs (see D150413).

The constructor function was being defined without indicating its "__init__"
name, which made it interpret it as a regular fuction rather than a
constructor. When overload resolution failed, Pybind would attempt to print the
arguments actually passed to the function, including "self", which is not
initialized since the constructor couldn't be called. This would result in
"__repr__" being called with "self" referencing an uninitialized MLIR C API
object, which in turn would cause undefined behavior when attempting to print
in C++. Even if the correct name is provided, the mechanism used by
PybindAdaptors.h to bind constructors directly as "__init__" functions taking
"self" is deprecated by Pybind. The new mechanism does not seem to have access
to a fully-constructed "self" object (i.e., the constructor in C++ takes a
`pybind11::detail::value_and_holder` that cannot be forwarded back to Python).
Instead, redefine "__new__" to perform the required checks (there are no
additional initialization needed for attributes and types as they are all
wrappers around a C++ pointer). "__new__" can call its equivalent on a
superclass without needing "self".
Bump pybind11 dependency to 3.8.0, which is the first version that allows one
to redefine "__new__".

Introduce the initial support for operation interfaces in C API and Python
bindings. Interfaces are a key component of MLIR's extensibility and should be
available in bindings to make use of full potential of MLIR.
This initial implementation exposes InferTypeOpInterface all the way to the
Python bindings since it can be later used to simplify the operation
construction methods by inferring their return types instead of requiring the
user to do so. The general infrastructure for binding interfaces is defined and
InferTypeOpInterface can be used as an example for binding other interfaces.
