/// Computes the sum of gradients of given tensors with respect to graph leaves.

/// The graph is differentiated using the chain rule. If any of ``tensors``
/// are non-scalar (i.e. their data has more than one element) and require gradient,
/// then the Jacobian-vector product would be computed, in this case the function
/// additionally requires specifying `grad_tensors`. It should be a sequence of
/// matching length, that contains the "vector" in the Jacobian-vector product,
/// usually the gradient of the differentiated function w.r.t. corresponding tensors
/// (`torch::Tensor()` is an acceptable value for all tensors that don't need
/// gradient tensors).
///
/// This function accumulates gradients in the leaves - you might need to zero them
/// before calling it.
///
/// \param tensors Tensors of which the derivative will be computed.
/// \param grad_tensors The "vector" in the Jacobian-vector product, usually gradients
///     w.r.t. each element of corresponding tensors. `torch::Tensor()` values can be
///     specified for scalar Tensors or ones that don't require grad. If a `torch::Tensor()` value
///     would be acceptable for all grad_tensors, then this argument is optional.
/// \param retain_graph If `false`, the graph used to compute the grad will be freed.
///     Note that in nearly all cases setting this option to `true` is not needed
///     and often can be worked around in a much more efficient way. Defaults to the
///     value of `create_graph`.
/// \param create_graph If `true`, graph of the derivative will be constructed, allowing
///     to compute higher order derivative products. Defaults to `false`.
/// \param inputs Inputs w.r.t. which the gradient will be accumulated into
///     `at::Tensor::grad`. All other Tensors will be ignored. If not provided, the gradient
///     is accumulated into all the leaf Tensors that were used to compute param `tensors`.
///     All the provided inputs must be leaf Tensors.
