/*
 * \brief   Padding/Unpadding LoDTensor to/from normal Tensor of the shape
 *          [max_sequence_length, num_sequences, sequence_width].
 *
 *  Padding sequence:
 *        padding[i] = seq[lod[level][i]]
 *  Unpadding sequence:
 *        seq[lod[level][i]] = padding[i]
 *
 *  All sequences will be padded to the same length and stored in a transposed
 * shape.
 *  Example:
 *    seq     (s0, s0, s0, s0; s1, s1; s2, s2, s2; s3)
 *    padding (s0, s1, s2, s3; s0, s1, s2, 0; s0, 0, s2, 0; s0, 0, 0, 0)
 *
 * \param context       device context of this functor.
 * \param seq           LoDTensor which is stored in sequence format, the shape
 *                      is [total_sequence_length, sequence_width] where
 *                      total_sequence_length is the sum of all sequences'
 *                      length.
 * \param padding       Tensor which is padded to the same length, the shape is
 *                      [max_sequence_length, num_sequences, sequence_width].
 * \param norm_by_times whether dividing sequence's length.
 *
 * \note  transposition is also done in this functor.
