When importing from LLVM IR the data layout of all pointer types
contains an index bitwidth that should be used for index computations.
This revision adds a getter to the DataLayout that provides access to
the already stored bitwidth. The function returns an optional since only
pointer-like types have an index bitwidth. Querying the bitwidth of a
non-pointer type returns std::nullopt.
The new function works for the built-in Index type and, using a type
interface, for the LLVMPointerType.
This is useful for bit-packing types such as vectors and tuples as well as for
exotic architectures that have non-8-bit bytes.
Depends On D98500

ModuleOp is a natural place to provide scoped data layout information. However,
it is undesirable for ModuleOp to implement the entirety of
DataLayoutOpInterface because that would require either pushing the interface
inside the IR library instead of a separate library, or putting the default
implementation of the interface as inline functions in headers leading to
binary bloat. Instead, ModuleOp accepts an arbitrary data layout spec attribute
and has a dedicated hook to extract it, and DataLayout is modified to know
about ModuleOp particularities.
