Summary:
This large diff rewrites a significant portion of Implicitron's config hierarchy. The new hierarchy, and some of the default implementation classes, are as follows:
```
Experiment
data_source: ImplicitronDataSource
dataset_map_provider
data_loader_map_provider
model_factory: ImplicitronModelFactory
model: GenericModel
optimizer_factory: ImplicitronOptimizerFactory
training_loop: ImplicitronTrainingLoop
evaluator: ImplicitronEvaluator
```
1) Experiment (used to be ExperimentConfig) is now a top-level Configurable and contains as members mainly (mostly new) high-level factory Configurables.
2) Experiment's job is to run factories, do some accelerate setup and then pass the results to the main training loop.
3) ImplicitronOptimizerFactory and ImplicitronModelFactory are new high-level factories that create the optimizer, scheduler, model, and stats objects.
4) TrainingLoop is a new configurable that runs the main training loop and the inner train-validate step.
5) Evaluator is a new configurable that TrainingLoop uses to run validation/test steps.
6) GenericModel is not the only model choice anymore. Instead, ImplicitronModelBase (by default instantiated with GenericModel) is a member of Experiment and can be easily replaced by a custom implementation by the user.
All the new Configurables are children of ReplaceableBase, and can be easily replaced with custom implementations.
In addition, I added support for the exponential LR schedule, updated the config files and the test, as well as added a config file that reproduces NERF results and a test to run the repro experiment.

Summary:
This converts raysamplers to ReplaceableBase so that users can hack their own raysampling impls.
Context: Andrea tried to implement TensoRF within implicitron but could not due to the need to implement his own raysampler.
