-/// Provides gradient checkpointing functionality for memory-efficient training.
-///
-///
-///
-/// Gradient checkpointing (also known as activation checkpointing or memory checkpointing)
-/// is a technique that trades computation time for memory by not storing all intermediate
-/// activations during the forward pass. Instead, it recomputes them during the backward pass.
-///
-/// For Beginners: When training large neural networks, storing all intermediate
-/// results (activations) can use a lot of memory. Gradient checkpointing saves memory by:
-///
-/// 1. Only storing activations at certain "checkpoints"
-/// 2. During backpropagation, recomputing the activations between checkpoints
-///
-/// This uses less memory but takes more time (roughly 30% more computation).
-/// It's essential for training very large models that wouldn't otherwise fit in GPU memory.
-///
-///
-/// This implementation follows patterns from PyTorch's torch.utils.checkpoint and
-/// TensorFlow's tf.recompute_grad.
-///
