Switch resource variables from copy-on-read to copy-on-write.

RELNOTES: Change the signature of (C++) GetInputTensorFromVariable in
training_op_helpers to support new copy-on-write semenatics of resource
variables.

+// Our general strategy for preventing conflicts between concurrent
+// reads and writes of resource variables is to:
+// * For read operations, we:
+//   - acquire the variable's mutex (in "shared" mode);
+//   - make a (shallow) copy of the Tensor object, which increments
+//     the reference count on the variable's TensorBuffer;
+//   - release the variable's mutex;
+//   - use the copy of the Tensor object to do the read.
+// * For write operations, we:
+//   - acquire the variable's mutex (in "exclusive" mode);
+//   - check the reference count of variable's TensorBuffer and
+//     if it is >1, make a deep copy of the variable's Tensor;
+//   - mutate the variable's Tensor;
+//   - and release the variable's mutex.
+// This allows several read operations to all use the same
+// TensorBuffer without needing to copy. When it comes time to write
+// it will only make a copy if there is an outstanding read using the
+// buffer. Write operations are serialized by the variable's mutex.
+//
+// For sparse operations (scatter, gather, sparse optimizer updates),
+// we need to avoid copies, since there may not be enough memory for
+// to copies of the whole tensor. To support this, we make two
+// modifications to the above strategy:
+// * For sparse reads (gather), we hold the variable's mutex (still in
+//   "shared" mode) for the duration of the whole read. This means
+//   that as long as you only do sparse read operations no write will
+//   see the reference count >1.
+// * For sparse write operations where the user explicitly specifies
+//   that they want to perform the write without locks held
+//   (use_locking=false), we never copy even if the variable's
+//   reference count is >1.
