This PR introduces small fixes around fp16 training and batch fitting:
* Multi-loss casts type to first loss-type before accumulation (aborted before due to missing cast)
* Throw `ShapeSizeException` if total expanded shape size exceeds numeric capacity of the maximum int value (2^31-1)
* During mini-batch-fitting, catch `ShapeSizeException` and use another sizing hint. Aborts outside mini-batch-fitting.
* Negative `--workspace -N` value allocates workspace as total available GPU memory minus N megabytes.
This PR sets default parameters for cost-scaling to 8.f 10000 1.f 8.f, i.e. when scaling scale by 8 and do not try to automatically scale up or down. This seems most stable than variable cost-scaling with larger numbers that was the default before.
This PR fixes case augmentation with multi-threaded reading. The solution is to not look at iterator::pos_ in lazy processing, rather pass it as an argument to the lazy function.
This replaces dense alignment storage and training with a sparse representation. Training speed with guided alignment matches now nearly normal training speed, regaining about 25% speed.
This is no. 1 of 2 PRs. The next one will introduce a new guided-alignment training scheme with better alignment accuracy.

MacOS is weird and its CPU flags are separated in two separate fields returned by the sysctl interface. To get around this, we need to test both of them, so here goes

This parallelizes data reading. On very fast GPUs and with small models training speed can be starved by too slow batch creation. Use --data-threads 8 or more, by default currently set to 1 for backcompat.
* Add GCC 11 support
Some C++ Standard Library headers have been changed to no longer include other headers that they do need to depend on. As such, C++ programs that used standard library components without including the right headers will no longer compile.
The following headers are used less widely in libstdc++ and may need to be included explicitly when compiled with GCC 11:
<limits> (for std::numeric_limits)
<memory> (for std::unique_ptr, std::shared_ptr etc.)
<utility> (for std::pair, std::tuple_size, std::index_sequence etc.)
<thread> (for members of namespace std::this_thread.)
