Lars Momentum Optimizer.

This optimizer use LARS (https://arxiv.org/abs/1708.03888) to optimize each
weight using a local learning rate:

$$
local\_lr = \eta  *
    \frac{\left \| param \right \|}{\left \| grad \right \| + \beta *\left \| param \right \|} \\
velocity = mu * velocity +
    local\_lr * (grad + \beta * param) \\
param = param - velocity. \\
$$

Note that we use lars_weight_decay here to decay weights, you may need not to
use L2 regularizers in case of using LARS.
