* Merged commit includes the following changes:
311933687  by Sergio Guadarrama:

    Removes spurios use of tf.compat.v2, which results in spurious tf.compat.v1.compat.v2. Adds basic test to nasnet_utils.
    Replaces all remaining import tensorflow as tf with import tensorflow.compat.v1 as tf

--
311766063  by Sergio Guadarrama:

    Removes explicit tf.compat.v1 in all call sites (we already import tf.compat.v1, so this code was  doing tf.compat.v1.compat.v1). The existing code worked in latest version of tensorflow, 2.2, (and 1.15) but not in 1.14 or in 2.0.0a, this CL fixes it.

    Makes the freezable_batch_norm_test run w/ v2 behavior.

    [XLA] Rework debug flags for dumping HLO.

    The following flags (usually passed via the XLA_FLAGS envvar) are removed:

      xla_dump_computations_to
      xla_dump_executions_to
      xla_dump_ir_to
      xla_dump_optimized_hlo_proto_to
      xla_dump_per_pass_hlo_proto_to
      xla_dump_unoptimized_hlo_proto_to
      xla_generate_hlo_graph
      xla_generate_hlo_text_to
      xla_hlo_dump_as_html
      xla_hlo_graph_path
      xla_log_hlo_text

    The following new flags are added:

      xla_dump_to
      xla_dump_hlo_module_re
      xla_dump_hlo_pass_re
      xla_dump_hlo_as_text
      xla_dump_hlo_as_proto
      xla_dump_hlo_as_dot
      xla_dump_hlo_as_url
      xla_dump_hlo_as_html
      xla_dump_ir
      xla_dump_hlo_snapshots

    The default is not to dump anything at all, but as soon as some dumping flag is
    specified, we enable the following defaults (most of which can be overridden).

     * dump to stdout (overridden by --xla_dump_to)
     * dump HLO modules at the very beginning and end of the optimization pipeline
     * don't dump between any HLO passes (overridden by --xla_dump_hlo_pass_re)
     * dump all HLO modules (overridden by --xla_dump_hlo_module_re)
     * dump in textual format (overridden by
       --xla_dump_hlo_as_{text,proto,dot,url,html}).

    For example, to dump optimized and unoptimized HLO text and protos to /tmp/foo,
    pass

      --xla_dump_to=/tmp/foo --xla_dump_hlo_as_text --xla_dump_hlo_as_proto

    For details on these flags' meanings, see xla.proto.

    The intent of this change is to make dumping both simpler to use and more
    powerful.

    For example:

     * Previously there was no way to dump the HLO module during the pass pipeline
       in HLO text format; the only option was --dump_per_pass_hlo_proto_to, which
       dumped in proto format.

       Now this is --xla_dump_pass_re=.* --xla_dump_hlo_as_text.  (In fact, the
       second flag is not necessary in this case, as dumping as text is the
       default.)

     * Previously there was no way to dump HLO as a graph before and after
       compilation; the only option was --xla_generate_hlo_graph, which would dump
       before/after every pass.

       Now this is --xla_dump_hlo_as_{dot,url,html} (depending on what format you
       want the graph in).

     * Previously, there was no coordination between the filenames written by the
       various flags, so info about one module might be dumped with various
       filename prefixes.  Now the filenames are consistent and all dumps from a
       particular module are next to each other.

    If you only specify some of these flags, we try to figure out what you wanted.
    For example:

     * --xla_dump_to implies --xla_dump_hlo_as_text unless you specify some
       other --xla_dump_as_* flag.

     * --xla_dump_hlo_as_text or --xla_dump_ir implies dumping to stdout unless you
       specify a different --xla_dump_to directory.  You can explicitly dump to
       stdout with --xla_dump_to=-.

    As part of this change, I simplified the debugging code in the HLO passes for
    dumping HLO modules.  Previously, many tests explicitly VLOG'ed the HLO module
    before, after, and sometimes during the pass.  I removed these VLOGs.  If you
    want dumps before/during/after an HLO pass, use --xla_dump_pass_re=<pass_name>.
