This is an initial attempt to provide some statistics for the pinned host memory allocations flowing through CachingHostAllocator. Many times in the past we have had inexplicable slowdowns that would be much easier to diagnose if we had some host memory characteristics.
This change tries very hard not to disrupt the initial design of the allocator, and it uses existing locking mechanism, whenever possible, to gather statistics "for free". Only deviation from that is on the "slow path" where we incur CUDA calls anyway, so taking a short lock is not going to hurt the performance much, especially in the steady state where most allocations will come from cache.
As mentioned before, this is the first PR, to introduce the concept and to see if it fits the right paradigm. We can always add more later.
Metrics that would require more involved changes to the code base and locks, like requested memory, have been punted for now. I also tried to reuse the Stat structure used in CUDA caching allocator, in order to maintain symmetry.

Summary:
### Context
Background checkpoint upload thread interfering with trainer thread:
In [async save API](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/torch/distributed/checkpoint/state_dict_saver.py#L239-L248), the background thread spends a considerable amount of time on CPU-bound tasks (pickling/unpickling several metada objects a.k.a SavePlans) on rank0 during the collective operation; this kind of asymmetric computation heavily contends for GIL with the trainer thread causing GPU util to suffer significantly for the E2E checkpoint duration.
### Solution:
Introduce async save via a checkpoint daemon process. This daemon process will be created once (during the first save attempt) and can serve async checkpoint requests for the remainder of training lifetime.
Test Plan: Added E2E UTs for process based async save.

Summary:
Generate AOTI size and stride input check by default. But the checks are only run if `AOT_INDUCTOR_DEBUG_COMPILE` env variable is set (to avoid slowing down the performance).
Example output:
```cpp
bool _check_aoti_runtime_check_inputs_env() {
const static char* env_var_value = getenv("AOTI_RUNTIME_CHECK_INPUTS");
const static bool result = env_var_value != nullptr && env_var_value[0] != '\0';
return result;
}
AOTI_NOINLINE static void __check_inputs_outputs(
AtenTensorHandle* input_handles,
AtenTensorHandle* output_handles) {
if (!_check_aoti_runtime_check_inputs_env()){
return;
}
//rest of the check
}
```

This patch adds support for sycl kernels build via `torch.utils.cpp_extension.load`, `torch.utils.cpp_extension.load_inline` and (new) `class SyclExtension` APIs. Files having `.sycl` extension are considered to have sycl kernels and are compiled with `icpx` (dpc++ sycl compiler from Intel). Files with other extensions, `.cpp`, `.cu`, are handled as before. API supports building sycl along with other file types into single extension.
Note that `.sycl` file extension is a PyTorch convention for files containing sycl code which I propose to adopt. We did follow up with compiler team to introduce such file extension in the compiler, but they are opposed to this. At the same time discussion around sycl file extension and adding sycl language support into such tools as cmake is ongoing. Eventually cmake also considers to introduce some file extension convention for sycl. I hope we can further influence cmake and compiler communities to broader adopt `.sycl` file extension.
By default SYCL kernels are compiled for all Intel GPU devices for which pytorch native aten SYCL kernels are compiled. At the moment `pvc,xe-lpg`. This behavior can be overridden by setting `TORCH_XPU_ARCH_LIST` environment variables to the comma separated list of desired devices to compile for.

Use it to unwrap any functorch-wrapped tensor. I don't recommend using
the output in a program since it breaks the semantics of the transforms,
but it seems useful for debugging.
I will note that some people have wanted to get intermediate values out
of an e.g. grad transform, so this might be a way to do that...

## Background
This PR adds `torch.utils.serialization.config.load.calculate_storage_offsets`. This option relies on the previous PR in this stack, where storage order was changed to non lexicographical. A `.format_version` entry was added to the zipfile and `calculate_storage_offsets` will only work on checkpoints with `.format_version`.
When this is turned on, for `torch.load(mmap=True)`, offsets of each storage record (other than the 0th storage will be calculated instead of relying on `miniz` APIs to determine this).
The existing APIs will issue multiple random reads (reading the end of central directory record, then reading the zipfile header for the record) to determine the storage offset where the record starts. This can greatly degrade `torch.load(mmap=True)` performance for non-filesystem cases.
6aaae9d78f/caffe2/serialize/inline_container.cc (L589-L605)
## How does this work
The format for the checkpoint is as such
```
archive_name/
|_ data.pkl
|_.format_version
|_byteorder
|_data/
|_ 0
|_ 1
|_ 2
|_ ...
|_
```
Each `data/i` record represents a storage, where storages are written in the order that the Pickler encounters them.
For each storage, our `persistent_load` logic saves the following metadata to the pickle file `dtype, numel, key, location` where `numel` is the number of bytes in the storage.
Note that we always use `miniz` writer in the zip64 mode per [here](7796e308d0/caffe2/serialize/inline_container.cc (L701)) A zipfile record written by miniz looks as such
```
---------------- ----------------- ------------------- ---------------- --------- ------------------------------
| 30 byte header | n byte filename | zip64_extra_data | m byte padding | storage | 16 or 24 byte local dir footer |
---------------- ----------------- ------------------- ---------------- --------- ------------------------------
```
- The header size (30) is given by [`MZ_ZIP_LOCAL_DIR_HEADER_SIZE`](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/third_party/miniz-3.0.2/miniz.c?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR2O8Vysd--UoSCxW70gabXIS1dbz733oHwuUQ5_Ff1hY2WU6PL2i6CSH4A_aem_J9oaU2HpDeWtJKOU9EnVqw#L3290)
- filename will be `"{archive_name}/{filepath}"`
- `zip64_extra_data` is determined by [`mz_zip_writer_create_zip64_extra_data`](7796e308d0/third_party/miniz-3.0.2/miniz.c (L6202)). Note that [we only create zip64_extra_data if storage_size >= 0xFFFFFFFF or the offset of the start of the header >= 0xFFFFFFFF](7796e308d0/third_party/miniz-3.0.2/miniz.c (L6519-L6524))
- `m` is determined by [`getPadding`](7796e308d0/caffe2/serialize/inline_container.cc (L254)), which accounts for filename, zip64_extra_data to determine `m` such that the start of `storage` is aligned to 64 bytes. The `m` bytes will always start with `F B padding_size" as the first 4 bytes
- The local dir footer size is determined based on [this snippet ](7796e308d0/third_party/miniz-3.0.2/miniz.c (L6610-L6632)): if the buffer size is 0 it is skipped. If the zip64_extra_data was created, it is 24, otherwise it is 16.
When `torch.utils.serialization.config.load.calculate_storage_offsets` is set we do the following
- We keep track of where the "cursor" is in the file using `current_offset`, after each persistent_load call, it will be at the offset where the header for the next record starts
- for the 0th storage, "data/0", we use the regular get_record_offset to determine the start of the storage
- for any other storage, (where the storages will be in order encountered by the unpickler, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...) we use `get_record_offset_no_read`, which re-uses the `getPadding` logic to determine the offset of the storage
- Note that `load_tensor` will only ever be called again with the same key if the storage's `._data_ptr()` is 0 [[pointer1](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/torch/serialization.py#L1917-L1918)][[pointer2](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/torch/serialization.py#L1936-L1937)], so we cache the offsets for this edge case
- After each storage, if the storage is non-zero, we account for the local dir footer based on the logic described above
## Testing strategy
The agreed upon testing strategy was as follows:
- Add debug code gated by an environment flag `TORCH_SERIALIZATION_DEBUG` that will run this offset calculation logic and verify it against getRecordOffset for each storage (when mmap=False)
- This flag is set throughout CI, which means that every time `torch.load` is called, the offset calculation logic is implicitly being tested.

Triton 2.2 and greater have a bug where allowing TF32 generation for a GPU that does not support TF32 will cause code generation errors. Patch around this problem by:
1. Adding a function to `torch.cuda` that determines whether CUDA hardware is capable of using the TF32 format.
2. Using that function to explicitly disable TF32 generation when calling Triton, where needed.
To demonstrate that this fix works, try running `test/inductor/test_max_autotune.py` on a GPU with CUDA compute capability < 8 (e.g. any NVIDIA consumer GPU) without this fix.
