auto_shard.py currently uses torch.fx to create a symbolic DAG of
operations and linearizes that DAG into an nn.Sequential so it can later
be used for model offloading. This works in most cases but runs into
issues for certain eager mode features, such as dynamic conditionals,
shape-dependent computation, etc.

This PR extends auto_shard.py to first run a preprocessing step which wraps
any nn.Module which cannot be traced through. It adds a test for dynamic
conditionals and updates existing failing test code.

There are some immediate extensions to this approach which are marked as
TODO in the code.
