Yu Yang

Goals: Code Clean Up for Paddle Layer Configuration and Registration.

• Thinking how to clean up Paddle Code, give a overview documentaion #1665
  • After discuss, maybe user stories are not fit for design. I will change it into following subsections.
    1. What are the problems that this PR will solve? What are the problems this PR paved the way to solve?
    2. How do we solve the problems?
    3. How does other framework solve the similar problems?
• Decoupled the BaseFunction and Layer, prepare for code clean up job #2049
• Give a implementation of Code Clean Up of Function package #2087
