`PassManager::run` loads the dependent dialects for each pass into the
current context prior to invoking the individual passes. If the
dependent dialect is already loaded into the context, this should be a
no-op. However, if there are extensions registered in the
`DialectRegistry`, the dependent dialects are unconditionally registered
into the context.
This poses a problem for dynamic pass pipelines, however, because they
will likely be executing while the context is in an immutable state
(because of the parent pass pipeline being run).
To solve this, we'll update the extension registration API on
`DialectRegistry` to require a type ID for each extension that is
registered. Then, instead of unconditionally registered dialects into a
context if extensions are present, we'll check against the extension
type IDs already present in the context's internal `DialectRegistry`.
The context will only be marked as dirty if there are net-new extension
types present in the `DialectRegistry` populated by
`PassManager::getDependentDialects`.
Note: this PR removes the `addExtension` overload that utilizes
`std::function` as the parameter. This is because `std::function` is
copyable and potentially allocates memory for the contained function so
we can't use the function pointer as the unique type ID for the
extension.
Downstream changes required:
- Existing `DialectExtension` subclasses will need a type ID to be
registered for each subclass. More details on how to register a type ID
can be found here:
8b68e06731/mlir/include/mlir/Support/TypeID.h (L30)
- Existing uses of the `std::function` overload of `addExtension` will
need to be refactored into dedicated `DialectExtension` classes with
associated type IDs. The attached `std::function` can either be inlined
into or called directly from `DialectExtension::apply`.

This patch adds more precise side effects to the current ops with memory
effects, allowing us to determine which OpOperand/OpResult/BlockArgument
the
operation reads or writes, rather than just recording the reading and
writing
of values. This allows for convenient use of precise side effects to
achieve
analysis and optimization.

Transform interfaces are implemented, direction or via extensions, in
libraries belonging to multiple other dialects. Those dialects don't
need to depend on the non-interface part of the transform dialect, which
includes the growing number of ops and transitive dependency footprint.
Split out the interfaces into a separate library. This in turn requires
flipping the dependency from the interface on the dialect that has crept
in because both co-existed in one library. The interface shouldn't
depend on the transform dialect either.
As a consequence of splitting, the capability of the interpreter to
automatically walk the payload IR to identify payload ops of a certain
kind based on the type used for the entry point symbol argument is
disabled. This is a good move by itself as it simplifies the interpreter
logic. This functionality can be trivially replaced by a
`transform.structured.match` operation.
Use the "main" transform-interpreter pass instead of the test pass.
This, along with the previously introduced debug extension, now allow
tutorials to no longer depend on test passes and extensions.
