Add anomaly detection support to TensorboardLogger

Summary:
### This Stack

Based on [this RFC](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1K1KQ886dynMRejR0ySH1fctOjS7gxaCS8AB1L_PHxU4/edit?usp=sharing), we are adding a new logger that warns about anomalous values in metrics, and optionally executes a callback function with potential side effects. This could be useful for users to realize sooner that something has gone wrong during training.

### This Diff

To start leveraging the AnomalyLogger as easily as possible, let's make it the base class for the Tensorboard logger instead of MetricLogger. This will have no effect unless users specify the `tracked_metrics` attribute, which is optional. However, if they do want to use it, they have to make very little changes.

Next diff will do the same for the AIXLogger
