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
Provides two integration ways for MSCCL++ DSL.
1. Integrate with customized communication group
2. Integrate with NCCL API
Introduce new Python APIs to make it work:
```python
mscclpp.compile # compile dsl to json based execution plan
mscclpp.ExecutionPlanRegistry.register_plan(plan) # register the compiled plan to executionPlanRegistery
mscclpp.ExecutionPlanRegistry.set_selector(selector) # set the selector, the selector will return the best execution plan based on collection, message size, world size....
```

- Make nccl interface extensible. Customer can register their own algo
to NCCL API. User can provide customized algo selection function.
- Fallback to NCCL/RCCL if no algo is selected based on algo selection
function
- MSCCLPP interfaces now works for any scale
* Allow CudaIpc connection between GPUs in a single process
* Added an example of connection in a single process
* Minor interface updates
