[syntax] Add let binding syntax to IOption

Summary:
This adds `let*/+`, `and*/+` operators for Option. See [the manual](https://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/manual046.html) for more information.

Example usage:
```
let foo =
  let open IOption.Let_syntax in
  let* a = get_optional () in
  let* b = get_another_optional () in
  return (a + b)
```
