[Mlir-commits] [mlir] [mlir][emitc] Simplify inlining logic (NFCI) (PR #169978)

[Gil Rapaport]

https://github.com/aniragil created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/169978

This change makes inlining logic in the translator simpler and more consistent by

(a) Extending the inlining concept to include CExpression ops, which by
    definition are inlined if and only if they reside within an
    ExpressionOp.

(b) Concentraing all inlining decisions in `shouldBeInlined()` to make
    sure that ops get the same decision when queried as operations and
    as operands.
