🚀 Add FLOPs count to model summary

[pietrolesci]

🚀 Feature

Add FLOPs count in model summary.

Motivation

Improvements in model development are increasingly evaluated using the FLOPs count (e.g., Training Compute-Optimal Large Language Models). However, there is no standardized way to compute FLOPs count, though many libraries exist (e.g., 1, 2). It would be great to add this functionality to the model summary in pytorch lightning.

It could be implemented by adapting https://dev-discuss.pytorch.org/t/the-ideal-pytorch-flop-counter-with-torch-dispatch/505 but PyTorch itself does not provide a solution upstream: pytorch/pytorch#5013

[ananthsub]

An implementation of the ideal flop counter is here:

Thanks for the link @ananthsub. For anybody reading, this is how you would use it:

import torch
from torcheval.tools.module_summary import get_module_summary
from pytorch_lightning.demos.boring_classes import BoringModel

model = BoringModel()
summary = get_module_summary(model, torch.randn(2, 32))
print(summary.flops_forward, summary.flops_backward)

Still, we'll want to add FLOPs support to our ModelSummary class (torcheval's ModuleSummary looks quite similar 👀), so leaving this issue open.
