Attach 'send' autograd function to the autograd graph as part of RPC. (#24876)
Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/pull/24876
This contains very basic functionality of adding 'send' autograd
function to our autograd graph. The purpose of this change is to validate the
basic structure proposed here makes sense. Once this makes sense, we can build
upon this to address more complicated scenarios. At a high level we've added
the following functionality:
1) Define a very simple 'SendRpcBackwards' autograd function.
2) Attach this function to appropriate tensors when we call an RPC.
3) Store the send function in our distributed autograd context.
