This is a new ODS feature that allows dialects to define a list of
key/value pair representing an attribute type and a name.
This will generate helper classes on the dialect to be able to
manage discardable attributes on operations in a type safe way.
For example the `test` dialect can define:
```
let discardableAttrs = (ins
"mlir::IntegerAttr":$discardable_attr_key,
);
```
And the following will be generated in the TestDialect class:
```
/// Helper to manage the discardable attribute `discardable_attr_key`.
class DiscardableAttrKeyAttrHelper {
::mlir::StringAttr name;
public:
static constexpr ::llvm::StringLiteral getNameStr() {
return "test.discardable_attr_key";
}
constexpr ::mlir::StringAttr getName() {
return name;
}
DiscardableAttrKeyAttrHelper(::mlir::MLIRContext *ctx)
: name(::mlir::StringAttr::get(ctx, getNameStr())) {}
mlir::IntegerAttr getAttr(::mlir::Operation *op) {
return op->getAttrOfType<mlir::IntegerAttr>(name);
}
void setAttr(::mlir::Operation *op, mlir::IntegerAttr val) {
op->setAttr(name, val);
}
bool isAttrPresent(::mlir::Operation *op) {
return op->hasAttrOfType<mlir::IntegerAttr>(name);
}
void removeAttr(::mlir::Operation *op) {
assert(op->hasAttrOfType<mlir::IntegerAttr>(name));
op->removeAttr(name);
}
};
DiscardableAttrKeyAttrHelper getDiscardableAttrKeyAttrHelper() {
return discardableAttrKeyAttrName;
}
```
User code having an instance of the TestDialect can then manipulate this
attribute on operation using:
```
auto helper = testDialect.getDiscardableAttrKeyAttrHelper();
helper.setAttr(op, value);
helper.isAttrPresent(op);
...
```
