Daniel Galvez 9ed0060225 Provide access to the cudaGraph_t underlying a CUDAGraph. (#155164)
There are a few considerations here:

1. A user might want to modify the cudaGraph_t either during the stream capture or after the stream capture (but before instantiation). This draft implements modification after stream capture only, though support could be added for modification during stream capture by applying
https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/pull/140979/files#diff-d7302d133bb5e0890fc94de9aeea4d9d442555a3b40772c9db10edb5cf36a35cR391-R404

2. Previously, the cudaGraph_t would be destroyed before the end of capture_end() unless the user had previously called enable_debug_mode(). There is no way to implement this correctly without removing this restriction, or forcing the user to always call enable_debug_mode(). However, enable_debug_mode() is a confusing API (despite being an instance method, it would modify a static global variable; thus, putting one CUDAGraph object into debug mode puts all of them into debug mode, which is not acceptable in my opinion). Therefore, I made enable_debug_mode() into a no-op. This means that the CPU memory usage will increase after this change. I think this is likely to be fine.

3. No python bindings yet. These should be easy to add. It is probably worthwhile to take some time to make sure that the returned cudaGraph_t can be converted into the cuda-python cudaGraph_t in a reasonable, hopefully type-safe, manner (but without making cuda-python a dependency of pytorch), since I imagine most users will use the pip cuda-python package to make modifications.

4. There are two foot guns:

   a. The cudaGraph_t returned by raw_cuda_graph() is not owned by the user, so it will be destroyed once the owning CUDAGraph is destroyed (or calls reset()).

   b. The following seuquence won't work as intended:

```
g = torch.cuda.CUDAGraph()
with torch.cuda.graph(g):
    foo()
g.replay()
raw_graph = g.raw_cuda_graph()
modify(raw_graph)
g.replay()
```

This won't work because the user must call instantiate() again after modifying cudaGraph_t. You could add a "safety" mechanism by traversing the cudaGraph_t to create a hash and seeing if the hash changes between calls to replay(), but this is likely way too expensive.

I think these two foot guns are probably okay given that this a bit of an experts' API.

Fixes #155106

r"""Accept callables (functions or :class:`nn.Module<torch.nn.Module>`\ s) and returns graphed versions.
Each graphed callable's forward pass runs its source callable's
forward CUDA work as a CUDA graph inside a single autograd node.
The graphed callable's forward pass also appends
a backward node to the autograd graph. During backward, this node runs the
callable's backward work as a CUDA graph.
Therefore, each graphed callable should be a drop-in replacement for its source callable
in an autograd-enabled training loop.
See :ref:`Partial-network capture<partial-network-capture>` for detailed use and constraints.
If you pass a tuple of several callables, their captures will use the same memory pool.
See :ref:`Graph memory management<graph-memory-management>` for when this is appropriate.
Arguments:
callables (torch.nn.Module or Python function, or tuple of these): Callable or callables to graph.
See :ref:`Graph memory management<graph-memory-management>` for when passing a tuple of callables
is appropriate. If you pass a tuple of callables, their order in the tuple must be the same order
they'll run in the live workload.
sample_args (tuple of Tensors, or tuple of tuples of Tensors): Samples args for each callable.
If a single callable was passed, ``sample_args`` must be a single tuple of argument Tensors.
If a tuple of callables was passed, ``sample_args`` must be tuple of tuples of argument Tensors.
num_warmup_iters (int): The number of warmup iterations. Currently, ``DataDistributedParallel`` needs
11 iterations for warm up. Default: ``3``.
allow_unused_input (bool): If False, specifying inputs that were not used when computing outputs
(and therefore their grad is always zero) is an error. Defaults to False.
pool (optional): Token (returned by :func:`~torch.cuda.graph_pool_handle` or
:meth:`other_Graph_instance.pool()<torch.cuda.CUDAGraph.pool>`) that hints this graph may share memory
with the indicated pool. See :ref:`Graph memory management<graph-memory-management>`.
.. note::
The ``requires_grad`` state of each Tensor in ``sample_args`` must match the state
that's expected for the corresponding real input in the training loop.
.. warning::
This API is in beta and may change in future releases.
.. warning::
``sample_args`` for each callable must contain only Tensors. Other types are not allowed.
.. warning::
Returned callables do not support higher order differentiation (e.g., double backward).
.. warning::
In any :class:`~torch.nn.Module` passed to :func:`~make_graphed_callables`, only parameters
may be trainable. Buffers must have ``requires_grad=False``.
