This is a companion to #118583, although it can be landed independently
because since #117922 dialects do not have to use the same Python
binding framework as the Python core code.
This PR ports all of the in-tree dialect and pass extensions to
nanobind, with the exception of those that remain for testing pybind11
support.
This PR also:
* removes CollectDiagnosticsToStringScope from NanobindAdaptors.h. This
was overlooked in a previous PR and it is duplicated in Diagnostics.h.

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.
Expose the API for constructing and inspecting StructTypes from the LLVM
dialect. Separate constructor methods are used instead of overloads for
better readability, similarly to IntegerType.
