This is a simple solution to how we could use sparse gradients for the Embedding and EmbeddingBag.
When I was writing this code, I saw that your CSRTensor implementations looks like COO tensor in pytorch because pytorch CSRTensor has another API.
I created a new PR because the rebase operation went wrong in #1439
