This change introduces new LLVMIR dialect operations to represent
TBAA root, type descriptor and access tag metadata nodes.
For the purpose of importing TBAA metadata from LLVM IR it only
supports the current version of TBAA format described in
https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#tbaa-metadata (i.e. size-aware
representation introduced in D41501 is not supported).
TBAA attribute support is only added for LLVM::LoadOp and LLVM::StoreOp.
Support for intrinsics operations (e.g. LLVM::MemcpyOp) may be added later.
The TBAA attribute is represented as an array of access tags, though,
LLVM IR supports only single access tag per memory accessing instruction.
I implemented it as an array anticipating similar support in LLVM IR
to combine TBAA graphs with different roots for Flang - one of the options
described in https://docs.google.com/document/d/16kKZVmI585wth01VSaJAqZMZpoX68rcdBmgfj0kNAt0/edit#heading=h.jzzheaz9vqac
It should be easy to restrict MLIR operation to a single access tag,
if we end up using a different approach for Flang.

This commit introduces the function_entry_count metadata field to the
LLVMFuncOp and adds both the corresponding import and export
funtionalities.
The import of the function metadata uses the same infrastructure as the
instruction metadata, i.e., it dispatches through a dialect interface.

Return failure if the import of a global variable fails and add a
test case to check the emitted error message. Additionally, convert
the globals in iteration order and do not process them recursively
when translating a constant expression referencing it. Additionally,
use the module location rather unknown location.

This commit adds support for importing the magic globals "global_ctors"
and "global_dtors" from LLVM IR to the LLVM IR dialect. The import
fails when these globals have a non-null data pointer, as this can
currently not be represented in the corresponding MLIR operations.

This revision extends the LLVMImportDialectInterface to make the import
of LLVM IR instruction-level metadata extensible. It extends the
signature of the existing dialect interface to provide a method to
import specific metadata kinds and attach them to the imported
operation. The conversion function can rely on the ModuleImport class
to perform support tasks.
The revision implements the second part of the
"extensible llvm ir import" rfc:
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-extensible-llvm-ir-import/67256/6
The interface method names changed a bit compared to the suggested
design. The hook to set the instruction level metadata is now called
setMetadataAttrs and takes the metadata kind as an additional parameter.
We do not hand in the original LLVM IR instruction since it is not used
at this point. Importing named module-level meta data can be added in a
later stage after gaining some experience with this extension mechanism.

The revision introduces the LLVMImportDialectInterface to make the
import of LLVM IR intrinsics extensible. It uses a dialect interface
that enables external projects to provide their own conversion functions
for custom intrinsics. These conversion functions can rely on the
ModuleImport class to perform support tasks such as mapping LLVM
values to MLIR values or for converting types between the two worlds.
The implementation largely mirrors the export implementation. One major
difference is the dispatch to the appropriate dialect interface, since
LLVM IR intrinsics have no direct association to an MLIR dialect. The
dialect interfaces thus have to publish the supported intrinsics to
ensure incoming conversion calls are dispatched to the right dialect
interface.

part of the "extensible llvm ir import" rfc:

The revision renames the Importer to ModuleImport and moves the class
out of the ConvertFromLLVMIR.cpp file into ModuleImport.h and
ModuleImport.cpp. Additionally, it introduces two helper methods
on the ModuleImport class that convert functions and globals, and it
merges the translateLLVMIRToModule function into the
registerFromLLVMIRTranslation function to match the design of
the MLIR to LLVM IR export.
This restructuring is a step towards the file structure of the export
and a preparation for an extensible import
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-extensible-llvm-ir-import/67256/6 that
uses a dialect interface to import intrinsics and metadata.
