## Motivation
We are going to use a new blob account to store the checkpoints.
## Modification
Modify the azure blob storage URLs for BEiT checkpoints.
* All models updated with revised foward_features / forward_head interface
* Vision transformer and MLP based models consistently output sequence from forward_features (pooling or token selection considered part of 'head')
* WIP param grouping interface to allow consistent grouping of parameters for layer-wise decay across all model types
* Add gradient checkpointing support to a significant % of models, especially popular architectures
* Formatting and interface consistency improvements across models
* layer-wise LR decay impl part of optimizer factory w/ scale support in scheduler
* Poolformer and Volo architectures added
