Requires a function that can take the currently decoded symbols and return
the logits for the next symbol. The implementation is inspired by
https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.08144.
When running, the beam search steps can be visualized by using tfdbg to watch
the operations generating the output ids for each beam step. These operations
have the pattern:
(alive|finished)_topk_(seq,scores)
Operations marked `alive` represent the new beam sequences that will be
processed in the next step. Operations marked `finished` represent the
completed beam sequences, which may be padded with 0s if no beams finished.
Operations marked `seq` store the full beam sequence for the time step.
Operations marked `scores` store the sequence's final log scores.
The beam search steps will be processed sequentially in order, so when
capturing observed from these operations, tensors, clients can make
assumptions about which step is being recorded.
