[custom op] Generalize shape library logic to work with dtypes (#1594)
* [custom op] Generalize shape library logic to work with dtypes

This commit generalizes the shape library logic, so that dtype rules
for ops can also be expressed using the same mechanism. In other
words, each op can now have a shape function and a dtype function
specified in Python that is imported during lowering to calculate the
shapes and dtypes throught a program. For more information about how
to specify a dtype function, see the updated
`docs/adding_a_shape_and_dtype_function.md`.

For those not familiar with how the shape library works, the file
`docs/calculations_lib.md` provides an overview.
