IR: Split GenericMDNode into MDTuple and UniquableMDNode

Split `GenericMDNode` into two classes (with more descriptive names).

  - `UniquableMDNode` will be a common subclass for `MDNode`s that are
    sometimes uniqued like constants, and sometimes 'distinct'.

    This class gets the (short-lived) RAUW support and related API.

  - `MDTuple` is the basic tuple that has always been returned by
    `MDNode::get()`.  This is as opposed to more specific nodes to be
    added soon, which have additional fields, custom assembly syntax,
    and extra semantics.

    This class gets the hash-related logic, since other sublcasses of
    `UniquableMDNode` may need to hash based on other fields.

To keep this diff from getting too big, I've added casts to `MDTuple`
that won't really scale as new subclasses of `UniquableMDNode` are
added, but I'll clean those up incrementally.

(No functionality change intended.)
