* Several enhancement for code

1. Backward always infer shape & infer var type. Since there are RENAME
variables will be created when creating backward operator, but their
shape & var types are not inferenced.
2. Never use SomePtr-> directly, since every pointer could be nullptr if
it is a function return value. Add `detail::Ref` to cast pointer to
reference safely.
3. Enhance error message for backward.
4. Infer data type of variable in `sum` and `tensor_write`
