[rllib] Envs for vectorized execution, async execution, and policy serving (#2170) ## What do these changes do? **Vectorized envs**: Users can either implement `VectorEnv`, or alternatively set `num_envs=N` to auto-vectorize gym envs (this vectorizes just the action computation part). ``` # CartPole-v0 on single core with 64x64 MLP: # vector_width=1: Actions per second 2720.1284458322966 # vector_width=8: Actions per second 13773.035334888269 # vector_width=64: Actions per second 37903.20472563333 ``` **Async envs**: The more general form of `VectorEnv` is `AsyncVectorEnv`, which allows agents to execute out of lockstep. We use this as an adapter to support `ServingEnv`. Since we can convert any other form of env to `AsyncVectorEnv`, utils.sampler has been rewritten to run against this interface. **Policy serving**: This provides an env which is not stepped. Rather, the env executes in its own thread, querying the policy for actions via `self.get_action(obs)`, and reporting results via `self.log_returns(rewards)`. We also support logging of off-policy actions via `self.log_action(obs, action)`. This is a more convenient API for some use cases, and also provides parallelizable support for policy serving (for example, if you start a HTTP server in the env) and ingest of offline logs (if the env reads from serving logs). Any of these types of envs can be passed to RLlib agents. RLlib handles conversions internally in CommonPolicyEvaluator, for example: ``` gym.Env => rllib.VectorEnv => rllib.AsyncVectorEnv rllib.ServingEnv => rllib.AsyncVectorEnv ```

"""This implements the common experience collection logic.
Args:
worker (RolloutWorker): reference to the current rollout worker.
base_env (BaseEnv): env implementing BaseEnv.
extra_batch_callback (fn): function to send extra batch data to.
policies (dict): Map of policy ids to Policy instances.
policy_mapping_fn (func): Function that maps agent ids to policy ids.
This is called when an agent first enters the environment. The
agent is then "bound" to the returned policy for the episode.
rollout_fragment_length (int): Number of episode steps before
`SampleBatch` is yielded. Set to infinity to yield complete
episodes.
horizon (int): Horizon of the episode.
preprocessors (dict): Map of policy id to preprocessor for the
observations prior to filtering.
obs_filters (dict): Map of policy id to filter used to process
observations for the policy.
clip_rewards (bool): Whether to clip rewards before postprocessing.
pack (bool): Whether to pack multiple episodes into each batch. This
guarantees batches will be exactly `rollout_fragment_length` in
size.
clip_actions (bool): Whether to clip actions to the space range.
callbacks (DefaultCallbacks): User callbacks to run on episode events.
tf_sess (Session|None): Optional tensorflow session to use for batching
TF policy evaluations.
perf_stats (PerfStats): Record perf stats into this object.
soft_horizon (bool): Calculate rewards but don't reset the
environment when the horizon is hit.
no_done_at_end (bool): Ignore the done=True at the end of the episode
and instead record done=False.
Yields:
rollout (SampleBatch): Object containing state, action, reward,
terminal condition, and other fields as dictated by `policy`.

Rather, the env executes in its own thread, querying the policy for actions via `self.get_action(obs)`, and reporting results via `self.log_returns(rewards)`. We also support logging of off-policy actions via `self.log_action(obs, action)`. This is a more convenient API for some use cases, and also provides parallelizable support for policy serving (for example, if you start a HTTP server in the env) and ingest of offline logs (if the env reads from serving logs).

[rllib] Envs for vectorized execution, async execution, and policy serving (#2170) ## What do these changes do? **Vectorized envs**: Users can either implement `VectorEnv`, or alternatively set `num_envs=N` to auto-vectorize gym envs (this vectorizes just the action computation part). ``` # CartPole-v0 on single core with 64x64 MLP: # vector_width=1: Actions per second 2720.1284458322966 # vector_width=8: Actions per second 13773.035334888269 # vector_width=64: Actions per second 37903.20472563333 ``` **Async envs**: The more general form of `VectorEnv` is `AsyncVectorEnv`, which allows agents to execute out of lockstep. We use this as an adapter to support `ServingEnv`. Since we can convert any other form of env to `AsyncVectorEnv`, utils.sampler has been rewritten to run against this interface. **Policy serving**: This provides an env which is not stepped. Rather, the env executes in its own thread, querying the policy for actions via `self.get_action(obs)`, and reporting results via `self.log_returns(rewards)`. We also support logging of off-policy actions via `self.log_action(obs, action)`. This is a more convenient API for some use cases, and also provides parallelizable support for policy serving (for example, if you start a HTTP server in the env) and ingest of offline logs (if the env reads from serving logs). Any of these types of envs can be passed to RLlib agents. RLlib handles conversions internally in CommonPolicyEvaluator, for example: ``` gym.Env => rllib.VectorEnv => rllib.AsyncVectorEnv rllib.ServingEnv => rllib.AsyncVectorEnv ```
