Gpu conv faster

bugfix gradient of csm_properties

Minor stuff (including a fix for a bug recently introduced)

Merge feature (rebased)

Replacement for equivalent nodes and constants are now queued when
the graph is modified, through the MergeFeature, and processed when the
optimization is applied.
This means that appling the MergeOptimization when there is nothing
to be merged is now almost instantaneous, even for big graphs.
It is also faster when lots of nodes have to be merged (empirical 40 %
speed-up for a graph with ~ 5000 nodes).

Default argument fix

Gpu conv faster

Add MergeOptimizer in canonicalize phase

config.blah should not be used as a default argument as the values can
change during execution, but default arguments are only evaluated at
function definition time. The correct idiom is to use a sentinel value
such as None and then check for it, and read out the config value in the
function body.
