Add AzureML in integrations via dedicated callback (#8062)
* first attempt to add AzureML callbacks

* func arg fix

* var name fix, but still won't fix error...

* fixing as in https://discuss.huggingface.co/t/how-to-integrate-an-azuremlcallback-for-logging-in-azure/1713/2

* Avoid lint check of azureml import

* black compliance

* Make isort happy

* Fix point typo in docs

* Add AzureML to Callbacks docs

* Attempt to make sphinx happy

* Format callback docs

* Make documentation style happy

* Make docs compliant to style

Callbacks
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Callbacks are objects that can customize the behavior of the training loop in the PyTorch
:class:`~transformers.Trainer` (this feature is not yet implemented in TensorFlow) that can inspect the training loop
state (for progress reporting, logging on TensorBoard or other ML platforms...) and take decisions (like early
stopping).
Callbacks are "read only" pieces of code, apart from the :class:`~transformers.TrainerControl` object they return, they
cannot change anything in the training loop. For customizations that require changes in the training loop, you should
subclass :class:`~transformers.Trainer` and override the methods you need (see :doc:`trainer` for examples).
By default a :class:`~transformers.Trainer` will use the following callbacks:
- :class:`~transformers.DefaultFlowCallback` which handles the default behavior for logging, saving and evaluation.
- :class:`~transformers.PrinterCallback` or :class:`~transformers.ProgressCallback` to display progress and print the
logs (the first one is used if you deactivate tqdm through the :class:`~transformers.TrainingArguments`, otherwise
it's the second one).
- :class:`~transformers.integrations.TensorBoardCallback` if tensorboard is accessible (either through PyTorch >= 1.4
or tensorboardX).
- :class:`~transformers.integrations.WandbCallback` if `wandb <https://www.wandb.com/>`__ is installed.
- :class:`~transformers.integrations.CometCallback` if `comet_ml <https://www.comet.ml/site/>`__ is installed.
- :class:`~transformers.integrations.MLflowCallback` if `mlflow <https://www.mlflow.org/>`__ is installed.
- :class:`~transformers.integrations.AzureMLCallback` if `azureml-sdk <https://pypi.org/project/azureml-sdk/>`__ is
installed.
The main class that implements callbacks is :class:`~transformers.TrainerCallback`. It gets the
:class:`~transformers.TrainingArguments` used to instantiate the :class:`~transformers.Trainer`, can access that
Trainer's internal state via :class:`~transformers.TrainerState`, and can take some actions on the training loop via
:class:`~transformers.TrainerControl`.
