The current implementation is quite clunky; OperationName stores either an Identifier
or an AbstractOperation that corresponds to an operation. This has several problems:
* OperationNames created before and after an operation are registered are different
* Accessing the identifier name/dialect/etc. from an OperationName are overly branchy
- they need to dyn_cast a PointerUnion to check the state
This commit refactors this such that we create a single information struct for every
operation name, even operations that aren't registered yet. When an OperationName is
created for an unregistered operation, we only populate the name field. When the
operation is registered, we populate the remaining fields. With this we now have two
new classes: OperationName and RegisteredOperationName. These both point to the
same underlying operation information struct, but only RegisteredOperationName can
assume that the operation is actually registered. This leads to a much cleaner API, and
we can also move some AbstractOperation functionality directly to OperationName.

Introduce the initial support for operation interfaces in C API and Python
bindings. Interfaces are a key component of MLIR's extensibility and should be
available in bindings to make use of full potential of MLIR.
This initial implementation exposes InferTypeOpInterface all the way to the
Python bindings since it can be later used to simplify the operation
construction methods by inferring their return types instead of requiring the
user to do so. The general infrastructure for binding interfaces is defined and
InferTypeOpInterface can be used as an example for binding other interfaces.
