[MLIR] Add f6E3M2FN type (#105573)
This PR adds `f6E3M2FN` type to mlir.
`f6E3M2FN` type is proposed in [OpenCompute MX
Specification](https://www.opencompute.org/documents/ocp-microscaling-formats-mx-v1-0-spec-final-pdf).
It defines a 6-bit floating point number with bit layout S1E3M2. Unlike
IEEE-754 types, there are no infinity or NaN values.
```c
f6E3M2FN
- Exponent bias: 3
- Maximum stored exponent value: 7 (binary 111)
- Maximum unbiased exponent value: 7 - 3 = 4
- Minimum stored exponent value: 1 (binary 001)
- Minimum unbiased exponent value: 1 − 3 = −2
- Has Positive and Negative zero
- Doesn't have infinity
- Doesn't have NaNs
Additional details:
- Zeros (+/-): S.000.00
- Max normal number: S.111.11 = ±2^(4) x (1 + 0.75) = ±28
- Min normal number: S.001.00 = ±2^(-2) = ±0.25
- Max subnormal number: S.000.11 = ±2^(-2) x 0.75 = ±0.1875
- Min subnormal number: S.000.01 = ±2^(-2) x 0.25 = ±0.0625
