In some OM dialect constructs, it is possible to receive EvaluatorValue::Reference values. In the Python bindings, where we are converting an EvaluatorValue to a Python value, we need to dereference the Reference, to get at the underlying EvaluatorValue that was set during evaluation.
This adds the necessary C APIs, and updates the Python bindings to use them. If we encounter a Reference, we dereference it and recursively call the converter function.
A Python test was added using an example IR from the Evaluator unit tests, which delays evaluation and introduces references.
