"""RNN utils for RLlib.

The main trick here is that we add the time dimension at the last moment.
The non-LSTM layers of the model see their inputs as one flat batch. Before
the LSTM cell, we reshape the input to add the expected time dimension. During
postprocessing, we dynamically pad the experience batches so that this
reshaping is possible.

Note that this padding strategy only works out if we assume zero inputs don't
meaningfully affect the loss function. This happens to be true for all the
current algorithms: https://github.com/ray-project/ray/issues/2992
