This layer creates the sharded index for input. This layers is used in
model- and data- parallel mixed training generally, in which the index
data (usually the label) should be recaculated in each trainer according
to 

.. math::
    
    assert index_num % nshards == 0

    shard_size = index_num / nshards

    y = x % shard_size if x / shard_size == shard_id else ignore_value

We take the distributed one-hot representation to show what this layer is
used for. The distributed one-hot representation is seperated into multiple
shards, and each shard is filling zeros except the one with the index
inside. In order to create these sharded representation in each trainer,
the original index should be recalculated (i.e. sharded) before.

Examples:

    X is a Tensor of integer values:
      X.shape = [4, 1]
      X.data = [[1], [6], [12], [19]]
    
    suppose index_num = 20 and nshards = 2, then we get shard_size = 10
    
    if shard_id == 0, we get the Out:
      Out.shape = [4, 1]
      Out.data = [[1], [6], [-1], [-1]]
    
    if shard_id == 1, we get the Out:
      Out.shape = [4, 1]
      Out.data = [[-1], [-1], [2], [9]]

    the default `ignore_value` -1 is used in this example.
