Historically the builtin dialect has had an empty namespace. This has unfortunately created a very awkward situation, where many utilities either have to special case the empty namespace, or just don't work at all right now. This revision adds a namespace to the builtin dialect, and starts to cleanup some of the utilities to no longer handle empty namespaces. For now, the assembly form of builtin operations does not require the `builtin.` prefix. (This should likely be re-evaluated though)

The dialect-specific cast between builtin (ex-standard) types and LLVM
dialect types was introduced long time before built-in support for
unrealized_conversion_cast. It has a similar purpose, but is restricted
to compatible builtin and LLVM dialect types, which may hamper
progressive lowering and composition with types from other dialects.
Replace llvm.mlir.cast with unrealized_conversion_cast, and drop the
operation that became unnecessary.
Also make unrealized_conversion_cast legal by default in
LLVMConversionTarget as the majority of convesions using it are partial
conversions that actually want the casts to persist in the IR. The
standard-to-llvm conversion, which is still expected to run last, cleans
up the remaining casts standard-to-llvm conversion, which is still
expected to run last, cleans up the remaining casts

It is no longer necessary to also convert other "standard" ops along with the
complex dialect: the element types are now built-in integers or floating point
types, and the top-level cast between complex and struct is automatically
inserted and removed in progressive lowering.
