This PR was started because I noticed bugs in the docs:

- The interestingness test checked for an error, but did not redirect stderr to stdout to include it in the pipe.
- The interestingness test pipe ended with grep, but then checked for an exit code of 1 to mark the input as interesting. However, a pipe's overall exit code is the exit code of the rightmost command, and grep's exit code is zero when it detects the query string, and 1 when it does not detect the query string. So the test was backwards.

Then I wanted to test my fixes to be sure I got it right, and I realized that the doc has no properly runnable example. I tried adapting some tests but the use of the `test` dialect gave me some issues, so I felt it would be more straightforward to add a test that only uses builtin dialects. Because I could not find an upstream error to demonstrate, I instead just made the test check for the presence of a particular op, and the example I came up with hits a stack trace in the reduce tool:

```
PLEASE submit a bug report to https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/ and include the crash backtrace.

@jpienaar do you see anything obvious I'm doing wrong in my example that would cause this stack trace?
