Remove kwargs in policy init (#950)
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.
