Wrong gradient for some sensealgs #273

Description

We are currently experimenting with time dependent parameters, but the gradients often seem to come out wrong. For instance, this here is an artificially simple example for clarity:

using DiffEqSensitivity, OrdinaryDiffEq, Zygote

function get_param(breakpoints, values, t)
    for (i, tᵢ) in enumerate(breakpoints)
        if t <= tᵢ
            return values[i]
        end
    end

    return values[end]
end

function fiip(du, u, p, t)
    a = get_param([1., 2., 3.], p[1:4],  t)

    du[1] = dx =  a * u[1] - u[1] * u[2]
    du[2] = dy = -a * u[2] + u[1] * u[2]
end

p = [1., 1., 1., 1.]; u0 = [1.0;1.0]
prob = ODEProblem(fiip, u0, (0.0, 4.0), p);

Zygote.gradient(p->sum(concrete_solve(prob, Tsit5(), u0, p, sensealg = ForwardDiffSensitivity(), saveat = 0.1)), p)
Zygote.gradient(p->sum(concrete_solve(prob, Tsit5(), u0, p, sensealg = ForwardSensitivity(), saveat = 0.1)), p)
Zygote.gradient(p->sum(concrete_solve(prob, Tsit5(), u0, p, saveat = 0.1)), p)

which outputs

([29.75558216432594, 10.206643764088701, 53.37700890093469, 3.5509327396481574],)

with ForwardDiffSensitivity

([33.975936715110464, 39.48130754134167, 18.942236116902354, 4.377628387002488],)

with ForwardSensitivity

and

([0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 96.77707801785176],)

with the default sensealg.
