Address Performance issue in NestedMatcher

A performance issue was reported due to the usage of NestedMatcher in
ComposeAffineMaps. The main culprit was the ubiquitous copies that were
occuring when appending even a single element in `matchOne`.

This CL generally simplifies the implementation and removes one level of indirection by getting rid of
auxiliary storage as well as simplifying the API.
The users of the API are updated accordingly.

The implementation was tested on a heavily unrolled example with
ComposeAffineMaps and is now close in performance with an implementation based
on stateless InstWalker.

As a reminder, the whole ComposeAffineMaps pass is slated to disappear but the bug report was very useful as a stress test for NestedMatchers.

Lastly, the following cleanups reported by @aminim were addressed:
1. make NestedPatternContext scoped within runFunction rather than at the Pass level. This was caused by a previous misunderstanding of Pass lifetime;
2. use defensive assertions in the constructor of NestedPatternContext to make it clear a unique such locally scoped context is allowed to exist.
