Summary:
This PR is a large codemod to rewrite all C++ API tests with GoogleTest (gtest) instead of Catch.
You can largely trust me to have correctly code-modded the tests, so it's not required to review every of the 2000+ changed lines. However, additional things I changed were:
1. Moved the cmake parts for these tests into their own `CMakeLists.txt` under `test/cpp/api` and calling `add_subdirectory` from `torch/CMakeLists.txt`
2. Fixing DataParallel tests which weren't being compiled because `USE_CUDA` wasn't correctly being set at all.
3. Updated README

Summary:
This PR serves two purposes:
1. Design an abstraction over a serialization scheme for C++ modules, optimizers and tensors in general,
2. Add serialization to the ONNX/PyTorch proto format.
This is currently a rough prototype I coded up today, to get quick feedback.
For this I propose the following serialization interface within the C++ API:
```cpp
namespace torch { namespace serialize {
class Reader {
public:
virtual ~Reader() = default;
virtual void read(const std::string& key, Tensor& tensor, bool is_buffer = false) = 0;
virtual void finish() { }
};
class Writer {
public:
virtual ~Reader() = default;
virtual void writer(const std::string& key, const Tensor& tensor, bool is_buffer = false) = 0;
virtual void finish() { }
};
}} // namespace torch::serialize
```
There are then subclasses of these two for (1) Cereal and (2) Protobuf (called the "DefaultWriter" and "DefaultReader" to hide the implementation details). See `torch/serialize/cereal.h` and `torch/serialize/default.h`. This abstraction and subclassing for these two allows us to:
1. Provide a cereal-less serialization forward that we can ship and iterate on going forward,
2. Provide no-friction backwards compatibility with existing C++ API uses, mainly StarCraft.
The user-facing API is (conceptually):
```cpp
void torch::save(const Module& module, Writer& writer);
void torch::save(const Optimizer& optimizer, Writer& writer);
void torch::read(Module& module, Reader& reader);
void torch::read(Optimizer& optimizer, Reader& reader);
```
with implementations for both optimizers and modules that write into the `Writer` and read from the `Reader`
