This changes the behavior of constructing MLIRContext to no longer load globally registered dialects on construction. Instead Dialects are only loaded explicitly on demand:
- the Parser is lazily loading Dialects in the context as it encounters them during parsing. This is the only purpose for registering dialects and not load them in the context.
- Passes are expected to declare the dialects they will create entity from (Operations, Attributes, or Types), and the PassManager is loading Dialects into the Context when starting a pipeline.
This changes simplifies the configuration of the registration: a compiler only need to load the dialect for the IR it will emit, and the optimizer is self-contained and load the required Dialects. For example in the Toy tutorial, the compiler only needs to load the Toy dialect in the Context, all the others (linalg, affine, std, LLVM, ...) are automatically loaded depending on the optimization pipeline enabled.

Provide printing functions for most IR objects in C API (except Region that
does not have a `print` function, and Module that is expected to be printed as
Operation instead). The printing is based on a callback that is called with
chunks of the string representation and forwarded user-defined data.

Introduce an initial version of C API for MLIR core IR components: Value, Type,
Attribute, Operation, Region, Block, Location. These APIs allow for both
inspection and creation of the IR in the generic form and intended for wrapping
in high-level library- and language-specific constructs. At this point, there
is no stability guarantee provided for the API.
