1, add explicit value cache in emitting indices calculation;
2, move the indices calculation emitting logics into
ConvertTritonGPUOpToLLVMPatternBase to avoid the redundant build cost by
templates. Refer to the discussion in this thread by @LyricZhao :

# Background
The `versionMinor` in MmaEncodingAttr holds some states of DotOp's
operands in Volta, while such operands will be modified by some
patterns, making the states out-of-date.
This PR helps to correct the states.
# Implementation
It adds three new patterns:
1. `CollectMmaToUpdateForVolta` helps to collect and build a map holding
the MmaEncodingAttr instances with wrong states and create new correct
ones for them,
2. `UpdateMMAVersionMinorForVolta` helps to replace the Ops generating
the wrong MmaEncodingAttr instances with new correct ones, currently it
supports the following Ops
a. `convert_layout[X -> mma]`
b. `arith.constant SplatAttr : !tensor<mma>`
c. `dot ... : !tensor<mma>`
# Limitation
This PR chooses the mapping way to bypass the IR walk complexity from
the circular dependency between dot_operand[parent] and mma.
We use the MmaEncodingAttr instance as the mapping key, but there might
be multiple DotOp holding different DotOprand(IsMMAv1Row) that have the
same wrong MmaEncodingAttr instance.
To make each DotOp's (wrong) MmaEncodingAttr unique, we might need an ID
field to MmaEncodingAttr.
For stupid reasons, ops on int8 are 3 times slower than on int, and for
another set of stupid reasons we are not using cudaMemset for `zero_`,
so using `int8` buffer in `do_bench` makes it slow.

This PR clarifies which features are supported on P100 via its tests,
though Pascal is not officially and fully supported by Triton.
## What this PR does
- Skip unsupported tests on P100.
- Atomic RMW
- `tl.dot()` (perhaps not all patterns, but basically most `tl.dot()`
tests do not work on P100).
- Add an explicit error if shared memory size >= 64K on P100.
- Otherwise it causes `Invalid CUDA argument` error at
`cuLaunchKernel()`, but this error is not very straightforward to
understand. Instead of this generic CUDA argument error, this PR makes
Triton show an error during codegen when `sm < 70`. This check happens
in C/C++ so won't add an overhead in Triton's Python runtime.
- 3 tests (see below) are currently failing, but these are not marked as
skipped because any codegen update in the future can change the kernel
size of the other tests.
- This change won't affect Triton-MLIR. Hopefully Triton-MLIR's generic
`tl.dot()` implementation would support P100.
Importantly, Triton passed all the other tests on P100. Though this
support is not official, it is great for, for example, PyTorch's
TorchDynamo/Inductor, which can use Triton (without `tl.dot()`) for its
backend (https://github.com/pytorch/torchdynamo/issues/1591).

# You need a paid account (free trial does not cover GPUs)
Google Cloud -> New Project -> Compute-Engine -> VM Instance
Machine:
GPU: NVIDIA Tesla P100 x 1
CPU: 2 vCPUs, 7.5GB memory
Boot disk:
OS: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Disk: 40GB (cannot build Triton on the default 10GB disk)
- When I tried, about $1.2 per hour.
- US instances were full when I tried. I used Asia or Australia.
- Needed a paid account (GPU is not covered by free trial)
- Needed quota request for any GPU instance (by default, no GPU instance is allowed). Needed to wait an hour for approval
```

- Unifying several interfaces with different types to a single one, e.g.
`fsub_ru` and `dsub_ru` -> `sub_ru`;
- Minor bug fix: `fast_pow` is incorrectly classified into the `pow`
interface, of which arguments are the same as `powf`;
- Explicit interfaces for casting functions, e.g. decoupling
`ll2float_ru` to `ll2float_ru` and `ull2float_ru`;
- Removing interfaces that are not in NVIDIA's official documents, e.g.
`fmaf_ieee_rn`, which is confusing together with `fmaf_rn`.
Note that this PR for the master branch is different from #829, which is
for the MLIR branch.
