This PR adds an example code for switch channel testing. It validates
switch channel on single node and multi node environments. We need to
add the description of the algorithms and the explanation of the code
under doc.
example outputs:

The key purpose is handling all mscclpp objects' memory internally by
hiding shared pointers from user APIs.
* `Connection` class is now a wrapper of `BaseConnection` class that is
equivalent to the previous `Connection` class
* `connect()` methods now return `Connection` instead of
`std::shared_ptr<Connection>`
* Removed `connectOnSetup()` method
* Allow CudaIpc connection between GPUs in a single process
* Added an example of connection in a single process
* Minor interface updates
