This extension to the sparse tensor type system in MLIR
opens up a whole new set of sparse storage schemes, such as
block sparse storage (e.g. BCSR) and ELL (aka jagged diagonals).
This revision merely introduces the type extension and
initial documentation. The actual interpretation of the type
(reading in tensors, lowering to code, etc.) will follow.

We recently removed the singleton dimension level type (see the revision
https://reviews.llvm.org/D131002) since it was unimplemented but also
incomplete (properties were missing). This revision add singleton back as
extra dimension level type, together with properties ordered/not-ordered
and unique/not-unique. Even though still not lowered to actual code, this
provides a complete way of defining many more sparse storage schemes (in
the long run, we want to support even dimension level types and properties
using the additional extensions proposed in [Chou]).
Note that the current solution of using suffixes for the properties is not
ideal, but keeps the extension relatively simple with respect to parsing and
printing. Furthermore, it is rather consistent with the TACO implementation
which uses things like Compressed-Unique as well. Nevertheless, we probably
want to separate dimension level types from properties when we add more types
and properties.

Historically, the bindings for the Linalg dialect were included into the
"core" bindings library because they depended on the C++ implementation
of the "core" bindings. The other dialects followed the pattern. Now
that this dependency is gone, split out each dialect into a separate
Python extension library.

* The PybindAdaptors.h file has been evolving across different sub-projects (npcomp, circt) and has been successfully used for out of tree python API interop/extensions and defining custom types.
* Since sparse_tensor.encoding is the first in-tree custom attribute we are supporting, it seemed like the right time to upstream this header and use it to define the attribute in a way that we can support for both in-tree and out-of-tree use (prior, I had not wanted to upstream dead code which was not used in-tree).
* Adapted the circt version of `mlir_type_subclass`, also providing an `mlir_attribute_subclass`. As we get a bit of mileage on this, I would like to transition the builtin types/attributes to this mechanism and delete the old in-tree only `PyConcreteType` and `PyConcreteAttribute` template helpers (which cannot work reliably out of tree as they depend on internals).
* Added support for defaulting the MlirContext if none is passed so that we can support the same idioms as in-tree versions.
There is quite a bit going on here and I can split it up if needed, but would prefer to keep the first use and the header together so sending out in one patch.
