Relax IRBuilder (#4)

* Add initial IRBuilder.

* Add function output to irbuilder; update based on new AST.

* Add call method; clean up bindings

* Add test.

* Add multifuction test

* Move implementation to C++; infer shape and type

* update op python hook

* More tests and bug fix

* Add comments.

* Update shape/type inference.

* Restructure code; add python type hint.

* Cleanup code.

* Rebase; address comments.

* Add call intrinsic.

* nits.

* Remove call op.

* Migrate scope to C++ using tvm::With.

* Address naming.

* Add GetBlocks API.

* Unify EmitOutput APIs; add more comments.

* Remove shape and type deduction code.

* Also remove the shape/type attr interface.

* Address comments.

* Differentiate global and local function.

* Reset counter after building func/block.

* Rebase.

* Remove shape infer builtin.

* Return from void function as empty tuple.
