Canonicalizes `differentiable_function` instructions by filling in missing
derivative function operands.
Derivative function emission rules, based on the original function value:
- `function_ref`: look up differentiability witness with the exact or a minimal
superset derivative configuration. Emit a `differentiability_witness_function`
for the derivative function.
- `witness_method`: emit a `witness_method` with the minimal superset derivative
configuration for the derivative function.
- `class_method`: emit a `class_method` with the minimal superset derivative
configuration for the derivative function.
If an *actual* emitted derivative function has a superset derivative
configuration versus the *desired* derivative configuration, create a "subset
parameters thunk" to thunk the actual derivative to the desired type.
For `differentiable_function` instructions formed from curry thunk applications:
clone the curry thunk (with type `(Self) -> (T, ...) -> U`) and create a new
version with type `(Self) -> @differentiable (T, ...) -> U`.
Progress towards TF-1211.
The differentiation transform does the following:
- Canonicalizes differentiability witnesses by filling in missing derivative
function entries.
- Canonicalizes `differentiable_function` instructions by filling in missing
derivative function operands.
- If necessary, performs automatic differentiation: generating derivative
functions for original functions.
- When encountering non-differentiability code, produces a diagnostic and
errors out.
Partially resolves TF-1211: add the main canonicalization loop.
To incrementally stage changes, derivative functions are currently created
with empty bodies that fatal error with a nice message.
Derivative emitters will be upstreamed separately.
