* adding the pytest timeout plugin to properly root out hanging tests
* removing redundant code, slightly more reasonable timeout, works on single cuda
* finding the root bug for some of the cpu hangs, rpc init
* propagating all the rpc init test changes to the pipe and model parallel tests

- fixed typing
- make it run less often to reduce CI time

testing: run it in a loop make sure it is run in the right frequency.

* Add unittest for checkpoint & DDP

- this change adds test cases to reproduce the error with checkpoint & DDP
- mandeep mentioned that there is also deadlock in this case, but this
  change doesn't cover that.
- we cover cases where weight sharing is OK
- however, same module multiple checkpoint or find_unused_parameters are
  both not OK

* added norm checks
