Vijay Janapa Reddi 522946ecfd Add comprehensive unit tests for gradient flow regression prevention
- test_spatial_gradient_flow.py: Tests Conv2d and MaxPool2d backward function attachment and gradient propagation
- test_embedding_gradient_flow.py: Tests Embedding backward function attachment and gradient propagation
- Tests verify _grad_fn attachment to prevent .data bypass issues
- Tests validate gradient flow to all parameters (weight, bias)
- Tests check end-to-end gradient chains
- All tests pass (8/8 spatial, 6/6 embedding)

"""
Test gradient flow through spatial operations (Conv2d, MaxPool2d).
These tests ensure that:
1. Conv2dBackward is properly attached to Conv2d outputs
2. MaxPool2dBackward is properly attached to MaxPool2d outputs
3. Gradients flow correctly to all parameters (weight, bias)
4. Integration with autograd system works end-to-end
Prevents regression of gradient flow issues discovered in milestone testing.
