[mlir] Make attributes mutable in Python bindings

Attributes represent additional data about an operation and are intended to be
modifiable during the lifetime of the operation. In the dialect-specific Python
bindings, attributes are exposed as properties on the operation class. Allow
for assigning values to these properties. Also support creating new and
deleting existing attributes through the generic "attributes" property of an
operation. Any validity checking must be performed by the op verifier after the
mutation, similarly to C++. Operations are not invalidated in the process: no
dangling pointers can be created as all attributes are owned by the context and
will remain live even if they are not used in any operation.

Introduce a Python Test dialect by analogy with the Test dialect and to avoid
polluting the latter with Python-specific constructs. Use this dialect to
implement a test for the attribute access and mutation API.
