`grad_dtype` is a new attribute on Tensor to control gradient dtype:
- Access/setting is leaf-only.
- grad_dtype is respected when (1) when assigning to .grad, and (2) in the engine after the previous node produces incoming gradients for AccumulateGrad. (See table below for details)
- Not setting grad_dtype preserves the current behavior. Accessing it returns `t.dtype`
- `grad_dtype` cannot be set when there is already a `.grad` present and the dtypes conflict.
| `grad_dtype` setting | Setting `.grad` manually | Incoming gradient from autograd engine |
|-----------------------|--------------------------|-----------------------------------------|
| **Default (tensor’s dtype)** | `.grad` must match tensor’s dtype | Engine casts incoming grad to tensor’s dtype |
| **Set to specific dtype** | `.grad` must match that dtype | Engine casts incoming grad to the specified dtype |
| **Set to `None`** | `.grad` may be any dtype | Engine does not cast; accepts incoming grad dtype as-is |

If you try to use torch in c++ using modules then it will not compile due to static function not being supported in MSVC when using modules https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/10323558.
It's also aligned with [C++20 standard](https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2020/n4849.pdf) (ISO/IEC 14882:2020) 10.2.7 Export declaration [module.interface]: "Exported names have either external linkage or no linkage".
Fixes https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/71309
Tested using the following code.
```c++
export module testModule;
import <torch/torch.h>;
import <memory>;
import <string>;

import <iostream>;
export namespace testModule

{
torch::Tensor tensor1 = torch::rand({ 2, 3 });
torch::Tensor tensor2 = torch::rand({ 3, 2 });
// Perform tensor multiplication
torch::Tensor result = torch::matmul(tensor1, tensor2);
// Print the tensors
std::cout << "Tensor 1: " << tensor1 << std::endl;

Replaces `view_func()` closures with a reified `ViewFunc` data structure. Codegen generates a `ViewFunc` subclass for each view op (e.g. `NarrowViewFunc`) containing state needed to reconstruct the view. The `ViewFunc` API allows for querying and hot-swapping any `SymInt`s or `Tensors` in the state through `get_symints()` / `get_tensors()` / `clone_and_set()`, which will be essential for fake-ification later on.

Part 2 of implementation for general [subclass view fake-ification](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1C5taWiplmX7nKiURXDOAZG2W5VNJ2iV0fQFq92H0Cxw).
Details:
* Codegen `rev_view_func()` alongside `view_func()`
* Reverse view_func gives you a "base" from a "view": `rev_view_func(new_view) -> new_base` AKA it plays the original view backwards
* Utilizes the functional inverses defined in `FunctionalInverses.cpp`, passing `InverseReturnMode::AlwaysView`
* Manually implements functional inverses for `narrow()` and `chunk()`
* **NB: Multi-output views now set view_func() / rev_view_func() for each of the output views!**
* Due to this, the `as_view()` overload that operates on a list of views is scrapped in favor of iteration via codegen
Example codegen in `ADInplaceOrViewTypeN.cpp`:
```cpp
at::Tensor narrow(c10::DispatchKeySet ks, const at::Tensor & self, int64_t dim, c10::SymInt start, c10::SymInt length) {
auto _tmp = ([&]() {
at::AutoDispatchBelowADInplaceOrView guard;
return at::_ops::narrow::redispatch(ks & c10::after_ADInplaceOrView_keyset, self, dim, start, length);
})();
std::function<at::Tensor(const at::Tensor&)> func=nullptr;
std::function<at::Tensor(const at::Tensor&)> rev_func=nullptr;

};
rev_func = [=](const at::Tensor& input_view) {
// NB: args from narrow() signature are passed along to the inverse
return at::functionalization::FunctionalInverses::narrow_copy_inverse(self, input_view, at::functionalization::InverseReturnMode::AlwaysView, dim, start, length);

Summary:
Context
-------
This PR adds a new fallback to the Autograd dispatch keys.
If you would prefer the old behavior:
- A quick (unsupported) way to get the previous behavior is to call
`torch._C._set_autograd_fallback("nothing")`
- Register "torch::CppFunction::makeFallthrough()" to your Autograd key,
like in https://gist.github.com/zou3519/d09a5f4b1afe2430af09fea67c6ff2c8
It is possible that this PR regresses performance of overhead-bound
models. If this is the case, please reach out (and apply one of the
temporary fixes in the previous section).
Description for reviewers
-------------------------
In order to deprecate registering autograd kernels at not an autograd
key, we add a fallback to the Autograd dispatch keys. This fallback
raises a warning if the user attempts to backprop through the operator
and is also configurable to either warn or not warn.
The goal of this PR is to
- preserve as much BC as possible
- raise a warning that whatever the user is doing is potentially wrong.
- be as performant as possible
There are roughly two cases:
- if the post-autograd kernels return a Tensor that requires grad, then
we install an autograd hook that raises a warning. We are preserving BC
in that it is possible that the user has a torch::autograd::Function
registered to their CPU key.
- if the post-autograd kernels return Tensors that do not require grad,
then we make them require_grad and install a WarnNotImplemented grad fn
that warns in the backward pass. This is mildy BC-breaking (see next
section).
Test Plan:
- bunch of new tests
BC-Breaking Note
----------------
This PR adds a new fallback to the Autograd dispatch keys. It affects
custom operators that do not have a kernel registered to the Autograd
keys (e.g. AutogradCPU and AutogradCUDA).
If the previous behavior was that the custom operator would return
Tensors that do not require grad if the inputs do require grad, then
this PR changes it so that all floating-point and complex returns do
require grad. See the "Context" section above for how to get the old
behavior.

Now, when you do an inplace mutation and the view is naughty, you get this message:
```
RuntimeError: A view was created in no_grad mode and is being modified inplace with grad mode enabled. Given that this use case is ambiguous and error-prone, it is forbidden. You can clarify your code by moving both the view and the inplace either both inside the no_grad block (if you don't want the inplace to be tracked) or both outside (if you want the inplace to be tracked). To find out where this view was allocated, run your entire forward region under anomaly mode (torch.autograd.detect_anomaly(check_nan=False)).

How the old retains_grad hooks was implemented:
- retains_grad hooks are stored on the autograd_meta, as entries in a vector
- upon registration, a wrapper hook CppFunctionTensorPreHook is created to wrap that vector, and then that wrapper hook is registered to the grad_fn, i.e., by appending it to a vector of retains_grad hooks on the grad_fn
- upon in-place, for the old grad_fn we set the retains_grad hook to nullptr, so that even though the old grad_fn still references the vector, the vector contains a single nullptr. For the new grad_fn, we create a new wrapper hook around the vector (storing the single retains_grad hook) on autograd_meta.
The new retains_grad hook implementation:
- we store std::function by value, and we store it on the grad_fn rather than the autograd_meta
- a single grad_fn can have multiple outputs, so it can potentially hold multiple retains_grad hooks. We use an unordered_map (previously a vector).
- on in-place we remove the hook from the old grad_fn and put it in the new grad_fn (small implication of this change is that we we now need to have access to both the old grad_fn and new grad_fn, this isn't a problem)
Other details:
- CppFunctionTensorPreHook took a shared_ptr to vector of std::function. In our new implementation, we add a new wrapper hook CppFunctionSingleTensorPreHook, which takes a single std::function.

This reverts commit e525f433e15de1f16966901604a8c4c662828a8a.
Original PR: #85849
Fixes #ISSUE_NUMBER
In addition to reverting the revert, this PR:
- defines the virtual destructor of FunctionPreHook in the header. Why? Presumably the internal build imports the header from somewhere, but does not have function_hooks.cpp (where the virtual destructor was previously defined) in the same compilation unit.

### Changes in this PR
#### Implementation
- We have now have 3 fields: pre_hooks, retains_grad_hooks, and tensor_pre_hooks so that we can more precisely define their ordering and when they are executed.
- Since retains grad uses an entirely new field, we cannot reuse the old retains grad, logic. We refactor retains grad to call directly into the variable.cpp logic. Other logic in variable.cpp that handle cpp hooks must also be updated.
#### Hooks ordering and execution:
- Defines pre-hooks registered on tensor to run before pre-hooks registered on grad_fn
- Updates pre-hooks registered on tensor to always run, even if they are the inputs= to .grad()
- Post hooks (and pre hooks) can now observe the modifications to gradient by the tensor pre hook
#### Retains grad hooks
- retains grad hooks always execute last, even if there are other tensor pre-hooks registered
#### Unchanged:
- pre_hooks registered to grad_fn aren't expected to execute if they are the inputs= to .grad()
Follow ups:
- simplify retains_grad field to not be a vector, since it always holds a single hook
- potentially merge capture hooks with tensor pre hooks, this would involve some additional refactoring since
- python hooks registered to tensor behavior on in-place is still wrong

Apply clang-tidy fixups to prefer member initializer and modernize-pass-by-value. This is a mostly a noop, but it should make a few ctors slighlty more readable and more efficient. Also drops in some missing moves that prevents a lot of unnecessary copying.

Two issues (1) regarding hooks in general and (2) regarding retains grad hooks are fixed, Python hooks, which rely on a different mechanism are not discussed here:
- Hooks in cpp in general
- (fixed) new hooks to registered to a newer version of the tensor no longer get applied to grad_fn
associated with older version of the tensor when the first hook was ever registered
- (unchanged) hooks registered to the older version of the tensor remain active on
- Retains grad hooks
- (fixed) now get moved to the latest grad_fn. NB: To the user, retains_grad is not considered hooks
or expected to behave like hooks (which we consider properties of the grad_fn) vs retains_gradness
which is a property of the tensor.
- (not in this PR) Python hooks
- (will fix) same issue as hooks in cpp where new hooks are being applied to grad_fn associated
with the older version of the tensor
