- Accumulate encoder hidden state gradient to handle skip connection
- Correctly compute the number of layers in encoder / decoder for T5 model
- Ensure e weights are initialized the same way in embeddings
- Synchronize embedding gradients across encoder and decoder for T5 model
- Support for checkpoint loading and saving

Rename --batch-size to --micro-batch-size and drop in-minibatch from --num-micro-batches-in-minibatch

Also includes following changes for inter-layer model-parallel implementation:
- Refactoring of model implementations
- Training loop changes to support inter-layer communication using `ring_exchange`
- New groups for inter-layer communication
- Checkpoint changes
- Command line arguments
