Reviewed and looking good.  We have to set a convention for naming files.

Fixed a bug in module name normalization, for modules with
a name ending in ".module" (e.g. "features.module" in the case of
VGG).
Made the tests more robust, and also refactored the common code
to distiller/utils.py

* Modify 'create_png' to use the correct data structures (dicts instead
  lists, etc.)
* Handle case where an op was called not from a module. This relates to:
  * ONNX->"User-Friendly" name conversion to account for cases where
  * Detection of existing op with same name
  In both cases use the ONNX op type in addition to the op name
* Return an "empty" shape instead of None when ONNX couldn't infer
  a parameter's shape
* Expose option of PNG summary with parameters to user

When removing channels and thinning, the number of filters of the
next layer was not set correctly.

When loading a model that has already been thinned (e.g when loading
a model, thinning, saving, loading), don’t crash on wrong tensor sizes.

Cache the thinning recipe in the model when loading from checkpoint.
Without this, a loaded thin model will lose its recipes when saved to
checkpoint

This reverts commit ecade1b2.
This simply does not work, so reverting until we find a correct solution.
For example, in the language model the encoder and decoder weights are tied and use the
same memory, and yet I can't see how to determine that they are the same parameter.

Replace the original "homebrew" optimizer and LR-decay schedule with
PyTorch's SGD and ReduceLROnPlateau.
SGD with momentum=0 and weight_decay=0, and ReduceLROnPlateau with
patience=0 and factor=0.5 will give the same behavior as in the
original PyTorch example.

Having a standard optimizer and LR-decay schedule gives us the
flexibility to experiment with these during the training process.

In language models, we might use use "weight tying", which means that the same
weights tensor is used in several different places.  If tying is used, we'd like
to log the tensor information, but exclude it from the total sparsity calculation.

* Large update containing new thinning algorithm.

Thinning a model is the process of taking a dense network architecture with a parameter model that
has structure-sparsity (filters or channels) in the weights tensors of convolution layers, and making changes in the network architecture and parameters, in order to completely remove the structures.
The new architecture is smaller (condensed), with less channels and filters in some of the convolution layers.  Linear and BatchNormalization layers are also adjusted as required.

To perform thinning, we create a SummaryGraph (‘sgraph’) of our model.  We use the ‘sgraph’ to infer the
data-dependency between the modules in the PyTorch network.  This entire process is not trivial and will be
documented in a different place.

Large refactoring of SummaryGraph to support the new thinning requirement for traversing successors and predecessors.
- Operations (ops) are now stored in a dictionary, so that they can be accessed quickly by name.
- Refactor Operation construction code
- Added support for search a node’s predecessors and successors.  You can search for all predecessors/successors by depth, or by type.
- create_png now supports an option to display the parameter nodes

Updated schedules with new thinning syntax.

* Thinning: support iterative thinning of models

THere's a caveat with this commit: when using this code you will
need to train with SGD momentum=0.
The momentum update is dependent on the weights, and because we
dynamically change the weights shapes, we need to either make the
apporpriate changes in the Optimizer, or disable the momentum.
For now, we disable the momentum

This is a temporary implementation that allows filter-removal and
netowrk thinning for VGG.
The implementation continues the present design for network thinning,
which is problematic because parts of the solution are specific to
each model.

Leveraging some new features in PyTorch 0.4, we are now able to provide a
more generic solution to thinning, which we will push to 'master' soon.
This commit bridges the feature gap, for VGG filter-removal, for the
meantime.

Two places in the documentation gave the wrong path to the example
Alexnet sensitivity pruning schedule.

The latest changes to the logger caused the CI tests to fail,
because test assumes that the logging.conf file is present in the
same directory as the sample application script.
The sample application used cwd() instead, and did not find the
log configuration file.

Soon we will be reusing this function in other sample apps, so let's
move it to app_utils.

The 'master' branch now uses PyTorch 0.4, which has API changes that
are not backward compatible with PyTorch 0.3.

After we've upgraded Distiller's internal implementation to be
compatible with PyTorch 0.4, we've added a check that you are using
the correct PyTorch version.

Note that we only perform this check in the sample image classifier
compression application.

Work on the 'master' branch uses pre-release version numbers.
After releasing v0.1.0 with PyTorch 0.3, we have upgraded 'master'
to support PyTorch 0.4 which contains API changes which are not
backward compatible.

Eventually we will want to use this code in other sample applications,
so let's move the logger configuration code to a separate function.

There's a bit of ugly hacking in this current implementation because
I've added variable members to logging.logger.  These are actaully
config-once variables that convey the logging directory and filename.
I did not want to add more names to the global namespace, so I hacked
a temporary solution in which logging.logger is acts as a conveyor and
private namespace.  We'll get that cleaned up as we do more refactoring.

PyTorch 0.4 now fully supports the ONNX export features that are needed
in order to create a SummaryGraph, which is sort of a "shadow graph" for
PyTorch models.

The big advantage of SummaryGraph is that it gives us information about
the connectivity of nodes.  With connectivity information we can compute
per-node MAC (compute) and BW, and better yet, we can remove channels,
filters, and layers (more on this in future commits).

In this commit we (1) replace the long and overly-verbose ONNX node names,
with PyTorch names; and (2) move MAC and BW attributes from the Jupyter
notebook to the SummaryGraph.

This is a niche feature, which lets you print the names of the modules
in a model, from the command-line.
Non-leaf nodes are excluded from this list.  Other caveats are documented
in the code.

Data parallel models may execute faster on multiple GPUs, but rendering
them creates visually complex and illegible graphs.
Therefore, when creating models for a PNG summary, we opt to use
non-parallel models.

When we are traversing the forward path of a graph, by invoking each
module's forward_hook callback, we sometimes want to know the full
name of the module.
Previously, to infer the module name, we looked up the name of self.weight
parameter and used that to get the module name.
In PyTorch 0.4 we can directly look up the module name using
model_find_module_name.

Various small changes due to the chamnges in the semantics and syntax of the
PyTorch 0.4 API.

Note that currently distiller.model_performance_summary() returns wrong results
on graphs containing torch.nn.DataParallel layers.

Following https://pytorch.org/2018/04/22/0_4_0-migration-guide.html, we
need to be more precise in how we use .type()
