Move Uintx out of prototype for future extension (#635)

Summary:
Thanks @vayuda for adding the initial version of Uintx tensor subclass
we can now integrate this with `torch.uint1` to `torch.uint7` dtypes with some helpers
to unblock the benefit of bitpacking (model size saving) to people first, and then
we can gradually optimize the performance.

Also executorch is planning to integrate their low bit kernels with us, more native experience with
these lower bit types will be required / useful there as well

Test Plan:
python test/dtypes/test_uintx.py
