[mlir][bufferization] Support custom types (1/N) (#142986)

Following the addition of TensorLike and BufferLike type interfaces (see
00eaff3e9c897c263a879416d0f151d7ca7eeaff), introduce minimal changes
required to bufferize a custom tensor operation into a custom buffer
operation.

To achieve this, new interface methods are added to TensorLike type
interface that abstract away the differences between existing (tensor ->
memref) and custom conversions.

The scope of the changes is intentionally limited (for example,
BufferizableOpInterface is untouched) in order to first understand the
basics and reach consensus design-wise.

---
Notable changes:
* mlir::bufferization::getBufferType() returns BufferLikeType (instead
of BaseMemRefType)
* ToTensorOp / ToBufferOp operate on TensorLikeType / BufferLikeType.
Operation argument "memref" renamed to "buffer"
* ToTensorOp's tensor type inferring builder is dropped (users now need
to provide the tensor type explicitly)

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

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

Getting in touch
