* Fix two english api documents, transpose and strided_slice

* OP:strided_slice_op supports bool type inputs

* fix syncbn

* fix compare op in for in the cuda device

* fix the paddle compare op for the broadcast

* fix spawn default nprocs get error

* polish error message

    paddle.save paddle.static.save protocol的默认值改为4（原默认值为2）。

    pickle protocol=4相交于protocol=2：
        protocol=4时保存/加载大于4G的单个numpy.ndarray 等。
        protocol=4时保存/加载的速度有明显提升。
        Python2 不支持protocol=4（paddle2.1主要支持Python3，不再考虑Python2）。

    兼容问题：pickle版本（protocol）会写到文件里面，pickle load的时候会自动识别到protocol，paddle2.1（paddle.save pickle默认版本为2）可以加载paddle2.1.1的模型（paddle.save pickle默认版本为4）。

    test_paddle_save_load 单测随机挂：使用np.ndarray生成随机数组，可能生成nan，造成做对比时结果不匹配（nan != nan）。改为np.random.randn生成随机数组。

    test_paddle_save_load_binary随机挂: 如果一个字符串不能解析为Program，windows上会有超时风险。解决方法：不在windows平台不加载'不能解析为Program的字符串'。

Dy2stat failed when user writes return paddle.to_tensor(xxx), the reason is that visit_Expr doesn't work when the Expr is in return. Some other statements may trigger same bug. To fix it, we re-wrote a transformer to transform paddle.to_tensor to paddle.assign for all Call nodes.
