This vastly simplifies our code, allowing deleting multiple ops,
simplifying multiple passes, and removing a whole pass.
Now `refback` dialect is down to one op (refback.alloc_memref, which
simplifies allocations to just take a shape instead of individual
extents).
The time has come for BypassShapes/LowerShapedResultsToMemref to go away :(
For the reference backend, being consistent with upstream conventions is
the name of the game now.
This is a step down in a number of ways, e.g. test clarity and
separation of concerns. But it is fewer files and fewer tests, and
*does* address the "TODO: This is really fragile". It also eliminates two
more ops from the refback dialect (sadly, they are the
shaped_results/yield that we were getting kind of fond of, but alas).
Now that it has grown source/target materialization capabilities
(spelled with ops tensor_load/tensor_to_memref), we can use it. We can
also now delete refback.memref_to_tensor/refback.tensor_to_memref.
This is also a first step to reducing the downstream functionality
needed in the refback dialect.
I now realize that VerboseCamelCase is not the best choice for dialect
directory/file names and C++ identifiers (take e.g. "Linalg", "Basicpy",
etc. as prior art here; not LinearAlgebra or BasicPython). If I had to
name the convention it seems to be "Shortword" (or of course just
acronym dialects like LLVM, SCF, etc.).
This rename also has the side benefit of differentiating RefBackend
directories, which now refer to the actual backend itself, from
Refback/Refbackrt, which are the dialects which happen to be used by
that backend.
