Closes#947
This removes all kwargs from all policy constructors. While doing that,
I also improved several names and added a whole lot of TODOs.
## Functional changes:
1. Added possibility to pass None as `critic2` and `critic2_optim`. In
fact, the default behavior then should cover the absolute majority of
cases
2. Added a function called `clone_optimizer` as a temporary measure to
support passing `critic2_optim=None`
## Breaking changes:
1. `action_space` is no longer optional. In fact, it already was
non-optional, as there was a ValueError in BasePolicy.init. So now
several examples were fixed to reflect that
2. `reward_normalization` removed from DDPG and children. It was never
allowed to pass it as `True` there, an error would have been raised in
`compute_n_step_reward`. Now I removed it from the interface
3. renamed `critic1` and similar to `critic`, in order to have uniform
interfaces. Note that the `critic` in DDPG was optional for the sole
reason that child classes used `critic1`. I removed this optionality
(DDPG can't do anything with `critic=None`)
4. Several renamings of fields (mostly private to public, so backwards
compatible)
## Additional changes:
1. Removed type and default declaration from docstring. This kind of
duplication is really not necessary
2. Policy constructors are now only called using named arguments, not a
fragile mixture of positional and named as before
5. Minor beautifications in typing and code
6. Generally shortened docstrings and made them uniform across all
policies (hopefully)
## Comment:
With these changes, several problems in tianshou's inheritance hierarchy
become more apparent. I tried highlighting them for future work.

Closes#914
Additional changes:
- Deprecate python below 11
- Remove 3rd party and throughput tests. This simplifies install and
test pipeline
- Remove gym compatibility and shimmy
- Format with 3.11 conventions. In particular, add `zip(...,
strict=True/False)` where possible
Since the additional tests and gym were complicating the CI pipeline
(flaky and dist-dependent), it didn't make sense to work on fixing the
current tests in this PR to then just delete them in the next one. So
this PR changes the build and removes these tests at the same time.
Preparation for #914 and #920
Changes formatting to ruff and black. Remove python 3.8
## Additional Changes
- Removed flake8 dependencies
- Adjusted pre-commit. Now CI and Make use pre-commit, reducing the
duplication of linting calls
- Removed check-docstyle option (ruff is doing that)
- Merged format and lint. In CI the format-lint step fails if any
changes are done, so it fulfills the lint functionality.

Change the behavior of to_numpy and to_torch: from now on, dict is automatically converted to Batch and list is automatically converted to np.ndarray (if an error occurs, raise the exception instead of converting each element in the list).
