  Log Message:
  -----------
  [mlir][Python] Add casting constructor to Type and Attribute.

* This makes them consistent with custom types/attributes, whose constructors will do a type checked conversion. Of course, the base classes can represent everything so never error.
* More importantly, this makes it possible to subclass Type and Attribute out of tree in sensible ways.
