[mlir][debug] Convert DbgIntrOp to DebugRecords directly. (#154926)

Currently the `DbgDeclareOP/DbgValueOP/DbgLabelOp` are first converted
to llvm debug intrinsics which are later translated to debug records by
a call of `convertToNewDbgValues`. This is not only inefficient but also
makes the code that works on intermediate IR unnecessarily complicated.
The debug intrinsics are also being phased out. This PR converts these
Ops directly to debug records.

The conversion is relatively simple but there is a bit of code
repetition due to how the APIs in the `DIBuilders` are named. There are
few `cast<>` which I would like to do without but could not see a good
way around them. Any suggestions welcome here. Also noticed that
`DISubprogramAttr` is inherited from `DIScopeAttr` while in llvm, the
`DISubprogram` inherits from `DILocalScope`. I am going to fix this
separately and then we could use `FusedLocWith<LLVM::DILocalScopeAttr>`
and cast to `DILocalScope` will be much safer.

As the output remains the same, the existing tests cover this change. I
also ran the `GDB` tests with flang and there was no regression.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM
