[microTVM] Add wrapper for creating project using a MLF (#9090)

Currently there is already a wrapper function for creating a new project
directory based on an ExportableModule, but there isn't one for creating
a new project directory based on an existing MLF archive, which is also
handy. Hence that commit adds a new wrapper for creating a project using
an existing model compiled and kept in a MLF archive.
