Description

We publish some documentation about the MLIR dialects that is used by nvq++ compiler, but these are very bare bones so far. For example, documentation about the types and operators is missing. Some documentation is generated by cudaq-doc build target, but not all of the generated documentation is included in the published docs. Even though the dialects are under heavy development and are not stable at this point, it would be nice to make more (generated) documentation available in some form.

Research direction

Review the existing published MLIR dialect documentation and the cudaq-doc build target first. Identify the missing type and operator coverage and which generated material is omitted; done means the published documentation exposes the agreed additional dialect information despite ongoing development.
