This PR is proposing a new approach to solve the nn/optim only linked by python object identity problem.
The idea is to have a function that can swap the content of two Tensors t1 and t2 while preserving all the old references.
This would allow us to swap the `model.weight` with a new Tensor (can be any subclass of Tensor and any TensorImpl (xla, sparse, nested tensorimpl would work)). The use within nn will be done in a follow up.
This is done by swapping the whole content of the PyObject and then putting back the fields associated with external references (refcount, gc tracking and weakrefs).
Note that we have to properly handle all the cases where there is memory used before the public pointer PyObject* and where the PyObject is bigger due to dict/weakref being inlined (older CPython version) or due to slots.
The main limitation of this approach is that the number of slots need to match for the objects being swapped and thus limit usage of slots in subclasses.
Draft right now to see what @colesbury thinks about doing this?

Add non-package python modules to the public API checks.
The original change is to remove the `ispkg` check in this line
https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/docs/source/conf.py#L518
Everything else is to add the appropriate modules to the rst files, make sure every module we provide can be imported (fixed by either making optional dependencies optional or just deleting files that have been un-importable for 3 years), make API that are both modules and functions (like torch.autograd.gradcheck) properly rendered on the docs website without confusion and add every non-documented API to the allow list (~3k of them).
Next steps will be to try and fix these missing docs

As per title.
Note that the c++ side code for the minidumps part was removed. So trying to call any of these 3 functions today results in an error saying that `torch._C` doesn't have these attributes.
