Enable or disable validation checks in Pyro. Validation checks provide
useful warnings and errors, e.g. NaN checks, validating distribution
arguments and support values, detecting incorrect use of ELBO and MCMC.
Since some of these checks may be expensive, you may want to disable
validation of mature models to speed up inference.
The default behavior mimics Python's ``assert`` statement: validation is on
by default, but is disabled if Python is run in optimized mode (via
``python -O``). Equivalently, the default behavior depends on Python's
global ``__debug__`` value via ``pyro.enable_validation(__debug__)``.
Validation is temporarily disabled during jit compilation, for all
inference algorithms that support the PyTorch jit. We recommend developing
models with non-jitted inference algorithms to ease debugging, then
optionally moving to jitted inference once a model is correct.
