Preserve unsigned integer inputs/outputs (#13090)

Thanks so much to @rsuderman for the guidance and help !

This PR solves a bug where the signedness of inputs and outputs is lost,
because lowering to linalg dialect throws the signedness away. To fix
it, I'm using a new op `tensor.bitcast`, which casts the inputs/outputs
of the function from an unsigned type to the signless type in the body.

I am completely new to IREE, so this PR is still a little rough. Any
critique and suggestions for improvement is highly welcome. I'm
particularly interested in ways to make this more robust.

IREE: Intermediate Representation Execution Environment

IREE (Intermediate Representation Execution Environment, pronounced as “eerie”) is an MLIR-based end-to-end compiler and runtime that lowers Machine Learning (ML) models to a unified IR that scales up to meet the needs of the datacenter and down to satisfy the constraints and special considerations of mobile and edge deployments.

See our website for project details, user guides, and instructions on building from source.

Project Status

IREE is still in its early phase. We have settled down on the overarching infrastructure and are actively improving various software components as well as project logistics. It is still quite far from ready for everyday use and is made available without any support at the moment. With that said, we welcome any kind of feedback on any communication channels!
