@FrozenGene The current implementation doesn't actually change any
user/frontend APIs. We added the `MetadataModule` to take care of weight
initialization and separate it from code compilation. So you would have:
```
MetadataModule:
- DSO module
- Accelerator CSourceModule0
- Accelerator CSourceModule1
```
As you can see, `MetadataModule` manages the params, but we will still have
code in the submodules. The serialization and deserialization make sure that
the module structure is always maintained correctly. Therefore, we can still
have params/lib/json in one module.
In other words, it should not affect the way we package the final artifacts,
but it changes the way we compile certain modules (e.g. CSourceModule) and the
way we initialize modules that need constant data.
