SINGA-261 Add version ID into the checkpoint files

Fixed a bug from using 'CUDNN_VERSION_MAJOR', which should be 'CUDNN_MAJOR'

> During the development progress, we may change the checkpoint file structure. 
> To be compatible with previous version, we need to add the version ID 
> (MAJOR_VERSION, MINOR_VERSION, PATCHLEVEL) into the checkpoint file and 
> convert the checkpoint file content automatically when we load it.
> The version ID would be written into the .desc file. The load() function 
> would read the .desc file firstly and then choose the correponding method to 
> read the parse the .model file.
> The the weight matrix of the dense layer as an example. Some systems (e.g. 
> Caffe) set the shape as (num_output, num_input), whereas SINGA uses 
> (num_input, num_output). If we change it to (num_output, num_input) in a new 
> patch/version, we need to associate the checkpoint file with the SINGA 
> version and SINGA would then know how to load the checkpoint file correctly.
