Merged

Replace PostOrderVisit call sites with typed StructuralWalk callbacks. The occurrence-insensitive consumers need no traversal-wide deduplication.
Replace the PostOrderVisit callback with a typed StructuralWalk callback while preserving tensor-level deduplication.

This PR replaces TIR PostOrderVisit and PreOrderVisit usage with StructuralWalk.
A tree walk now uses a typed callback, and pre-order boolean descent becomes WalkResult::Advance or WalkResult::Skip. Sites retain identity sets only where a consumer depends on once-per-object behavior; buffer printer use counting instead uses def_region_kind to distinguish definitions from uses.
tirx::PostOrderVisit, tirx::PreOrderVisit, their helper visitors, FFI globals, and Python wrappers are removed. Python callers use tvm_ffi.structural_walk.
