[2D Parallelism] Tracking feasibility

上游 issue 正文
### Background
ZeRO-DP (ZeRO Data Parallel) and PP (Pipeline Parallelism) provide each a great memory saving over multiple GPUs. Each 1D allows for a much more efficient utilization of the gpu memory, but it's still not enough for very big models - sometimes not even feasible with any of the existing hardware. e.g. a model that's 45GB-big with just model params (t5-11b) can't fit even on a 40GB GPU.
The next stage in Model Parallelism that can enable loading bigger models onto smaller hardware is 2D Parallelism. That's combining Pipeline Parallelism (PP) with ZeRO-DP.
3D Parallelism is possible too and it requires adding a horizontal MP (ala [Megatron-LM](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Megatron-LM), but we don't quite have any way to implement that yet. Need to study Megatron-LM first. So starting with a relatively low hanging fruit of 2D.
------------------
### Tracking
We have 3 implementations that provide the required components to build 2D Parallelism:
1. DeepSpeed (**DS**)
2. FairScale (**FS**)
3. PyTorch (native) (**PT**)
and the purpose of this issue is to track the feasibility/status/inter-operability in each one of them. And also which parts have been back-ported to PyTorch core.
Plus it tracks the status of where transformers models are at with regards to the above 3 implementations.
The 2 main questions are:
1. native 2D: how do we integrate a native PP with native ZeRO-DP (sharded) (e.g. can fairscale PP work with fairscale ZeRO-DP)
2. inter-operability 2D: is there a chance one implementation of PP/ZeRO-DP could work with one or both others ZeRO-DP/PP (e.g. can fairscale PP work with DeepSpeed ZeRO-DP).

* MPU = Model Parallel Unit - a little helper module that helps each 1D to know which gpu groups it can use f…
