This change does 2 important things:
(a) Instead of relying on IValue type as source of truth, we use the schema as the source of truth, which is important as IValue types are overloaded and can ambiguously convert incorrectly. For example, a MemoryFormat will look like an int + get converted to an int64_t vs a MemoryFormat!
(b) This PR expands support for many more types to encompass way more schemas, e.g., Optional, Device, dtype, etc. The main win from this PR is the ability for aoti_torch_call_dispatcher to call TensorFactory ops like ones_like/empty_like!

This PR adds two main parts:
- shim.h stable C APIs into torch::Library APIs
- a higher level API in torch/csrc/stable/library.h that calls into this shim.h + otherwise is self contained
Goal: custom kernel writers should be able to call the apis in the directories above in order to register their library in a way that allows their custom extension to run with a different libtorch version than it was built with.
Subplots resolved:
- Do we want a whole separate StableLibrary or do we want to freeze torch::Library and add `m.stable_impl(cstring, void (*fn)(void **, int64_t, int64_t)` into it
- Yes, we want a separate StableLibrary. We cannot freeze Library and it is NOT header only.
- Should I use unint64_t as the common denominator instead of void* to support 32bit architectures better?
- Yes, and done
- Should I add a stable `def` and `fragment` when those can be done in python?
- I think we do want these --- and now they're done
- Where should library_stable_impl.cpp live? -- no longer relevant
- I need some solid test cases to make sure everything's going ok. I've intentionally thrown in a bunch of random dtypes into the signature, but I still haven't tested returning multiple things, returning nothing, complex dtypes, etc.
- Have since tested all the torch library endpoints. the others can be tested in a followup to separate components that need to be in shim.h vs can be added later
