Geoff RomerandJon Ross-Perkins dc32aa2690 Initial support for binding patterns in SemIR (#4221)
Introduces the `BindingPattern` and `SymbolicBindingPattern` insts, and
a separate stack of pattern blocks that they are emitted into. The
intent is to generate the corresponding pattern-matching insts (like
`BindName`) from them in a separate pass, but that is deferred to future
PRs.

See
[here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1U_vQH17V893J9aF1LJXUnFYBNSs2MjKl4bJPaWCB2zo/edit?usp=sharing&resourcekey=0-w0xGYZ0An31Kpz-wvzSXwQ)
for the design this is based on, but note that during review we have
chosen to deviate from that design by putting the patterns in separate
blocks, and omitting the "forward references" from a `BindingPattern` to
its corresponding `BindName`. This in turn necessitates having separate
inst kinds for symbolic and non-symbolic binding patterns.
