This patch implements an approach to communicate errors between the OMPIRBuilder and its users. It introduces `llvm::Error` and `llvm::Expected` objects to replace the values returned by callbacks passed to `OMPIRBuilder` codegen functions. These functions then check the result for errors when callbacks are called and forward them back to the caller, which has the flexibility to recover, exit cleanly or dump a stack trace. This prevents a failed callback to leave the IR in an invalid state and still continue the codegen process, triggering unrelated assertions or segmentation faults. In the case of MLIR to LLVM IR translation of the 'omp' dialect, this change results in the compiler emitting errors and exiting early instead of triggering a crash for not-yet-implemented errors. The behavior in Clang and openmp-opt stays unchanged, since callbacks will continue always returning 'success'.
