No longer generate data-type specific Storage types, since all Storage types are now identical anyway.
For (some) backwards compatibility and documentation purposes, the Real names, e.g. THLongStorage are now #defined as aliases to the single THStorage type
* Remove templatization of PyTypeObject in THP copy storage methods.
An in-progress refactoring of THStorage is collapsing the types of THStorages to not be ScalarType-specific.
The revelant PyTypeObject to use for the THPStorageType is currently templatized based on the current THStorage;
this doesn't work if the ScalarType is collapsed. Instead, just pass it explicitly.
* Pass src type instead of dst type.
* Line up columns.
This deletes most of the dead Tensor code paths, including the TensorMethods cwrap and generic/Tensor.cpp.
This also moves the THNN.cwrap/.cpp generation to generate_code which can use ninja if installed.
* Replace async with non_blocking for Python 3.7 upgrade
* Remove trailing whitespace
* Give _cuda and _type kwargs and accept async for compatibility
* Rename async to non_blocking in all C++ code
* Add entries for async in python_variable_methods
* Friendlier backward compatibility for cuda and type
