Now backends spell out which namespace they want to be in, instead of relying on
clients #including them inside already-opened namespaces. This also means that
cppNamespaces should be fully qualified, and there's no implicit "::mlir::"
prepended to them anymore.

This patch moves the registration to a method in the MLIRContext: getOrCreateDialect<ConcreteDialect>()
This method requires dialect to provide a static getDialectNamespace()
and store a TypeID on the Dialect itself, which allows to lazyily
create a dialect when not yet loaded in the context.
As a side effect, it means that duplicated registration of the same
dialect is not an issue anymore.
To limit the boilerplate, TableGen dialect generation is modified to
emit the constructor entirely and invoke separately a "init()" method
that the user implements.

The Vector Dialect [document](https://mlir.llvm.org/docs/Dialects/Vector/) discusses the vector abstractions that MLIR supports and the various tradeoffs involved.
One of the layer that is missing in OSS atm is the Hardware Vector Ops (HWV) level.
This revision proposes an AVX512-specific to add a new Dialect/Targets/AVX512 Dialect that would directly target AVX512-specific intrinsics.
Atm, we rely too much on LLVM’s peephole optimizer to do a good job from small insertelement/extractelement/shufflevector. In the future, when possible, generic abstractions such as VP intrinsics should be preferred.
The revision will allow trading off HW-specific vs generic abstractions in MLIR.
