1. Added `from petals.client import *` to `petals/__init__.py`, so you can write just that:
```python
from petals import DistributedBloomForCausalLM
```
I didn't do the same with server, since its classes are supposed to by used by `petals.cli.run_server`, not end-users. Though it's still possible to do `from petals.server.smth import smth` if necessary.
2. Fixed one more logging issue: log lines from hivemind were shown twice due to a bug in #156.
3. Removed unused `runtime.py`, since the server actually uses `hivemind.moe.Runtime`, and `runtime.py` has no significant changes comparing to it.
This pullrequest removes custom speed_test code in favour of speedtest-cli module.
This is necessary to ensure that random warnings / print-outs do not mess with our outputs.

1. If we connect to the **public swarm**, the server now **automatically checks its DHT's reachability** from the outside world using API at http://health.petals.ml This is important to disallow unreachable servers to proceed (they create issues for the clients, such as repetitive retries).
If http://health.petals.ml is down, the server proceeds without the check (so we don't depend on it). However, if health.petals.ml is up and explicitly tells us that we are unrechable, the server shows the reason of that and how to solve it.
The check may be disabled with the `--skip_reachability_check` option (though I can't imagine cases where someone needs to use it).
2. Added `--port` and `--public_ip` as **simplified convenience options** for users not familiar with `--host_maddrs` and `--announce_maddrs`.
* Add missing methods for SamplingAlgorithm, fix docstrings
* Add SamplingAlgorithm to _choose_sample_algorithm
* Add test_sampling
* Add a warning if sampling options were passed, but do_sample=False
* Skip the sampling test for now

The cause of OOMs were the cyclic references `TransformerBackend <-> PrioritizedTaskPool` that could not have been garbage collected properly. Still, I've added explicit tensor removal just in case.
- sequence_manager now takes care for its own updated-ness - no need to manually update it
- if a peer fails a request, sequence manager will ban this peer temporarily. Ban times increase with failure streaks

- Linear8bitLt now supports for pre-turing GPUs by temporarily upcasting quantized weights.
- added a test for linear8bitlt accuracy with the new fallback, the accuracy is similar than the real thing, (slightly better due to non-quantized A)
- performance is roughly halfway between the default mode and memory_efficient_backward
Alternatives considered:
- cupy - slow, casting to float internally
- triton - fast but unstable af. every 3rd attempt to matmul is a segfault
- bnb.functional.igemm (no lt) - "CuBLAS Error 8" on old GPUs

A patch to bitsandbytes 0.34.0 that introduces an option to run backward pass in default (fast) matrix layout.
Authors: cxb inversion by @borzunov, original 8bit code by @timdettmers
* optimized layout inversion code by @borzunov ([original code](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1EJ0MKifajXSSVq7O2_QGwtb0l6gRAGrh?usp=sharing)) to use less forward calls
* implemented CustomLinear8bitLt, a child of Linear8bitLt that can do backward without CB
* added exact match tests for layouts and linear layers: see tests/test_linear8bitlt.py
* switched petals to the new layer type
Core idea: layouts apply the same permutation to every tile in the matrix. We can treat this as (batched) gather ops.
Reshape input tensor so that ij-th gather operation op will apply to ij-th elements in each tile.
Prototype:
Layout info: https://github.com/TimDettmers/bitsandbytes/blob/main/csrc/kernels.cu#L2130-L2136

- [x] made RemoteSequenceManager into a background thread that pre-fetches information instead of running just in time
- [x] moved routing-related stuff to petals.client.routing
- [x] extract remote peer routing information to RemoteSequenceInfo
- [x] made sure that the code survives continued use (e.g. one hour)
- [x] updated every spot where update_ is called manually
- [x] modified get_sequence to check that the thread is alive, warn if not
- [x] removed max_retries, switched rpc_info to exponential backoff
- [x] fixed a bg that causes RemoteSeq* to lose user-defined hyperparameters (e.g. timeout) upon subsequencing (sequential[3:5])
- [x] moved client-side points strategy to client.routing
- [x] ensured that RemoteSequenceManager thread created in get_remote_module properly shuts down when the module is destroyed
- [x] resolved minor affected todos
- [x] modified tests to no longer use PYTHONPATH
- [x] worked around protocol error in rpc_info

Fixes:
- An exception while creating a model with `ptune/deep_ptune` and `low_cpu_mem_usage=True` (which is currently default).
- dtype mismatch between the prompts and the rest of the model in `.forward()`.
Currently, the schemas use `torch.float32`, so all inputs and outputs converted to float32 before sending and after receiving on both servers and clients. This creates a huge slowdown for the system.
* This PR makes the schemas use the server's `--torch_dtype` argument (default is `torch.bloat16` for BLOOM-176B)
* an option for client to request a specific output compression. Use case 1: client sends quantized inputs and expects quantized inputs in return. Use case 2: client uses quantization for gradients w.r.t. activations, but keeps grads w.r.t. __prompts__ as is for greater precision.
* a comment explaining the purpose of NoSpendingPolicy - since we likely won't have it for the workshop
* a test with custom compression (janky implementation for testing purposes)

1. Petals can be now installed using `pip install git+https://github.com/bigscience-workshop/petals`
- In case if you already cloned the repo, you can do `pip install .` or `pip install .[dev]`
2. Moved `src` => `src/petals`
- Replaced `from src.smth import smth` with `from petals.smth import smth`
3. Moved `cli` => `src/petals/cli`
- Replaced `python -m cli.run_smth` with `python -m petals.cli.run_smth` (all utilities are now available right after pip installation)
4. Moved the `requirements*.txt` contents to `setup.cfg` (`requirements.txt` for packages is not supported well by modern packaging utils)
5. Increased the package version from `0.2` to `1.0alpha1`
This PR:
1. Makes inference/forward/backward calls on client remember the dtype and device of source tensors, then move/cast the outputs to the same dtype/device. This way:
- Users don't need to make changes in the code launching `RemoteSequential` to make it run on a different device.
- `model.generate()` also starts to support both CPU and GPU.
2. Sets default `low_cpu_mem_usage=True`, client's request timeout to 20 sec.
3. Removes excess casts to float32 left in Dmitry's code.
4. (minor) Improves error messages.
- Before this PR, `ServerState.JOINING` was announced only once. This announcement quickly expires in case of the full-size BLOOM, since loading blocks takes several minutes. This PR fixes it, so `ServerState.JOINING` is announced periodically in a thread until blocks are loaded.
- This PR also makes the `Server` class a non-thread, so it runs in the main thread and can catch `KeyboardInterrupt`. This is important, since if we are downloading blocks right now, we need to stop it and send the `ServerState.OFFLINE` message. Note that `ModuleContainer` is still a thread.
- (minor) For the sake of readability, I moved the `ModuleContainer.create()` definition, so it is now defined before `Server.__init__()` (this is because `.create()` is invoked first).
