* Complete mlp, fit_a_line

* Expose get global scope

* Make global scope not thread-safe

1. It is no need to make global scope thread-safe, since it will be
invoked in Python main thread.
2. Do not free the global scope when C++ exit. Let the OS free memories,
otherwise, we need to handle the destroy dependencies.

Update the documentation of how to cross-compile for Android

Simplify executor

* initial matmul operator

Similar to np.matmul, but also has transpose_X and transpose_Y flags,
and only supports tensors from rank 1 to 3 inclusive.

For GPU, uses cublas?gemmStridedBatched. For CPU, uses
cblas_?gemm_batch if available via MKL; otherwise a simple serial
implementation that loops over the batch dimension is employed for now.
