Resource Specification for # of CPUs #387

@michaelzhiluo

Description

@michaelzhiluo

Sky currently supports users requesting X amount of GPUs/TPUs, e.g.

resources:
  accelerators:
    V100: 8

Users should also be able to specify how many CPU cores they want, e.g.

resources:
  cores: 16
  accelerators:
    V100: 8

Additional changes are needed to the optimizer (to consider this additional resource constraint). In additional, while Google decouples # of CPUs and # of GPUs, AWS advertises their GPUs in fixed packages of (CPUs, GPUs) (e.g. p3.2x (16 CPU, 1 V100), 3.8x, ...), which is not as flexible as Google's model. The optimizer needs to account for this and select the right packages in AWS that meet the user's constraint.
