"""Loads a dynamic library that contains custom operators into Caffe2.
Since Caffe2 uses static variable registration, you can optionally load a
separate .so file that contains custom operators and registers that into
the caffe2 core binary. In C++, this is usually done by either declaring
dependency during compilation time, or via dynload. This allows us to do
registration similarly on the Python side.
Args:
name: a name that ends in .so, such as "my_custom_op.so". Otherwise,
the command will simply be ignored.
Returns:
None
