Make grad more general (A. Bergeron)

Gradient code is moved from tensor/tensor_grad.py to theano/gradient.py. This makes it work with sparse variables. This commit was originally written by Arnaud Bergeron. I re-authored it to avoid a big merge in repo history.

"""
Theano is an optimizing compiler in Python, built to evaluate complicated expressions
(especially matrix-valued ones) as quickly as possible.
Theano compiles expression graphs (see :doc:`graph` ) that are built by Python code.
The expressions in these graphs are called `Apply` nodes and the variables in these graphs are called `Variable` nodes.
You compile a graph by calling `function`, which takes a graph, and returns a callable object.
One of theano's most important features is that `function` can transform your graph before
compiling it.
It can replace simple expressions with faster or more numerically stable implementations.

rng=numpy.random)
Raises an Exception if the difference between the analytic gradient and
numerical gradient (computed through the Finite Difference Method) of a
random projection of the fun's output to a scalar exceeds the given
tolerance.
:param fun: a Python function that takes Theano variables as inputs,
and returns a Theano variable. For instance, an Op instance with
a single output.
:param pt: the list of numpy.ndarrays to use as input values.
These arrays must be either float32 or float64 arrays.
:param n_tests: number of times to run the test
:param rng: random number generator used to sample u, we test gradient
of sum(u * fun) at pt
:param eps: stepsize used in the Finite Difference Method (Default
None is type-dependent)
:param abs_tol: absolute tolerance used as threshold for gradient
comparison
:param rel_tol: relative tolerance used as threshold for gradient
comparison
:note: WARNING to unit-test writers: if `op` is a function that builds
a graph, try to make it a SMALL graph. Often verify grad is run
in debug mode, which can be very slow if it has to verify a lot of
intermediate computations.
:note: This op does not support multiple outputs. In tests/test_scan.py
there is an experimental verify_grad that covers that case as well
by using random projections.

# There is a relationship between the step size and the function value and
# the measurement error that is incurred due to rounding. The finite
# difference we measure is
# delta = f(x0) - f(x0+eps)
#
# For maximum precision, f should be close to zero.
# For every power of 2 that f departs from zero, we lose a bit of precision
# in delta.
#
# Even in this case of maximum accuracy, there is a tradeoff between
# stepsize and measurement error.
# Taking small steps allows us to measure large derivatives accuractly,
# but longer steps are required to measure small derivatives accurately.
# However longer steps introduce bias into our measurement in general
# for non-linear functions.
#
# It would be interesting to have a version of numeric grad that used an
# adaptive stepsize.
#
# For now, we use a heuristic that catches very bad gradients, but is not
# perfectly accurate.
