I opened an issue explaining some of my frustrations with the current state of schedulers.
While most points that I raised in that issue need to be discussed more thoroughly before being implemented, there are some that are not so difficult to fix.
This PR changes the way the LambdaLR scheduler gets serialized:
This has the big advantage that the scheduler is serializable, even if you use lambda functions or locally defined functions (aka a function in a function).
Does this functionality need any unit tests?
