Describe

In order to simplify the writing of dynamic parallel training, remove DataParallel.scale_loss & apply_collective_grads.

  • DataParallel.scale_losss -> loss.backward()
  • DataParallel.apply_collective_grads -> optimizer.step/minimize

TODO:

  • remove two api in all related api example code (in next PR)
  • move scale_losss and apply_collective_grads into C++ for better preformance (in the future, now only for API stability of 2.0-RC)
