Add option to use Scheduled Huber Loss in all training pipelines to i…

…mprove resilience to data corruption (#1228)

* add huber loss and huber_c compute to train_util

* add reduction modes

* add huber_c retrieval from timestep getter

* move get timesteps and huber to own function

* add conditional loss to all training scripts

* add cond loss to train network

* add (scheduled) huber_loss to args

* fixup twice timesteps getting

* PHL-schedule should depend on noise scheduler's num timesteps

* *2 multiplier to huber loss cause of 1/2 a^2 conv.

The Taylor expansion of sqrt near zero gives 1/2 a^2, which differs from a^2 of the standard MSE loss. This change scales them better against one another

* add option for smooth l1 (huber / delta)

* unify huber scheduling

* add snr huber scheduler
