Thiago Crepaldi e07134092f Add warning when importing caffe2 on build without BUILD_CAFFE2=1
Confusing backtraces are issued to users when they run Caffe2 scripts (or tests) on PyTorch builds without Caffe2 enabled through `BUILD_CAFFE2=1`

This PR adds warnings (in more than one place) to return a friendly message for the user, helping them to overcome the problem by themselves

# NOTE: we have to import python protobuf here **before** we load cpp extension.
# Otherwise it breaks under certain build conditions if cpp implementation of
# protobuf is used. Presumably there's some registry in protobuf library and
# python side has to initialize the dictionary first, before static
# initialization in python extension does so. Otherwise, duplicated protobuf
# descriptors will be created and it can lead to obscure errors like
# "Parameter to MergeFrom() must be instance of same class:
# expected caffe2.NetDef got caffe2.NetDef."
#
# This has to be done for all python targets, so listing them here
