[NVPTX] Switch front-ends and tests to ptx_kernel cc (#120806)
the `ptx_kernel` calling convention is a more idiomatic and standard way of specifying a NVPTX kernel than using the metadata which is not supposed to change the meaning of the program. Further, checking the calling convention is significantly faster than traversing the metadata, improving compile time.
This change updates the clang and mlir frontends as well as the NVPTXCtorDtorLowering pass to emit kernels using the calling convention. In addition, this updates all NVPTX unit tests to use the calling convention as well.

[NVPTX,test] Change llc -march= to -mtriple=
Similar to 806761a7629df268c8aed49657aeccffa6bca449
-mtriple= specifies the full target triple while -march= merely sets the architecture part of the default target triple (e.g. Windows, macOS), leaving a target triple which may not make sense.
Therefore, -march= is error-prone and not recommended for tests without a target triple. The issue has been benign as we recognize nvptx{,64}-apple-darwin as ELF instead of rejecting it outrightly.

[NVPTX] Support !"cluster_dim_{x,y,z}" metadata (#109548)
Add support for !"cluster_dim_{x,y,z}" metadata to allow specifying
cluster dimensions on a kernel function in llvm.
If any of these metadata entries are present, the `.explicitcluster` PTX
directive is used and the specified dimensions are lowered with the
`.reqnctapercluster` directive. For more details see:
[PTX ISA: 11.7. Cluster Dimension Directives]
(https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/parallel-thread-execution/index.html#cluster-dimension-directives)
