Gradient Accumulator

Change gradient accumulation factor according to scheduling.
Trainer also calls ``optimizer.step()`` for the last indivisible step number.

    r"""
    Change gradient accumulation factor according to scheduling.
    Args:
        scheduling: scheduling in format {epoch: accumulation_factor}
    Note:
        The argument scheduling is a dictionary. Each key represent an epoch and
        its associated accumulation factor value.
        Warning: Epoch are zero-indexed c.f it means if you want to change
        the accumulation factor after 4 epochs, set ``Trainer(accumulate_grad_batches={4: factor})``
        or ``GradientAccumulationScheduler(scheduling={4: factor})``.
        For more info check the example below.
    Raises:
        TypeError:
            If ``scheduling`` is an empty ``dict``,
            or not all keys and values of ``scheduling`` are integers.
        IndexError:
            If ``minimal_epoch`` is less than 0.
    Example::
        >>> from pytorch_lightning import Trainer
        >>> from pytorch_lightning.callbacks import GradientAccumulationScheduler
        # from epoch 5, it starts accumulating every 2 batches. Here we have 4 instead of 5
        because epoch (key) should be zero-indexed.
        >>> accumulator = GradientAccumulationScheduler(scheduling={4: 2})
        >>> trainer = Trainer(callbacks=[accumulator])
        # alternatively, pass the scheduling dict directly to the Trainer
        >>> trainer = Trainer(accumulate_grad_batches={4: 2})
