This commit extends the DIDerivedTypeAttr with the `extraData` field.
For now, the type of it is limited to be a `DINodeAttr`, as extending
the debug metadata handling to support arbitrary metadata nodes does not
seem to be necessary so far.
Following the discussion from [this
thread](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/handling-cyclic-dependencies-in-debug-info/67526/11),
this PR adds support for recursive DITypes.
This PR adds:
1. DIRecursiveTypeAttrInterface: An interface that DITypeAttrs can
implement to indicate that it supports recursion. See full description
in code.
2. Importer & exporter support (The only DITypeAttr that implements the
interface is DICompositeTypeAttr, so the exporter is only implemented
for composites too. There will be two methods that each llvm DI type
that supports mutation needs to implement since there's nothing
general).

Expose the API for constructing and inspecting StructTypes from the LLVM
dialect. Separate constructor methods are used instead of overloads for
better readability, similarly to IntegerType.
This commit changes the LLVM dialect's CAPI pointer getters to drop
support for typed pointers. Typed pointers are deprecated and should no
longer be generated.
