Issue: Shared library loading logic breaks when CUDA packages are installed in a non-standard location
Labels: triaged,module: bazel,topic: build,bug

### 🐛 Describe the bug

**tl;dr:** Some CUDA libraries are distributed alongside Torch via PyPI packages. These packages include `nvidia-cudnn-cu11`, `nvidia-cusparse-cu11`, and so on. Torch's `__init__.py` has various tricks to find and load these libraries, but one of these tricks break when Torch is installed in a different location to the `nvidia-*` packages. This could be fixed by linking all of Torch's CUDA dependencies into `libtorch_global_deps.so`.

**Longer version:**

I'm using Torch PyPI with the [pants](https://www.pantsbuild.org/) build system, which creates Python environments with a slightly weird layout. Specifically, each package ends up in its own directory, rather than everything landing in `site-packages` like it would in a virtualenv. This causes problems when I attempt to import PyTorch 2.0.0:

```
ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)

ImportError: libcudnn.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
```

I think this may point at an issue with the shared library loading logic in Torch. Specifically, `_load_global_deps()` in Torch's `__init__.py` has this logic that first attempts to load globals deps from `libtorch_global_deps.so`, and then attempts to load any missing libraries if the `CDLL()` call fails:

```python
# See Note [Global dependencies]
def _load_global_deps():
    # ... snip ...

    lib_name = 'libtorch_global_deps' + ('.dylib' if platform.system() == 'Darwin' else '.so')
    here = os.path.abspath(__file__)
    lib_path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(here), 'lib', lib_name)

    try:
        ctypes.CDLL(lib_path, mode=ctypes.RTLD_GLOBAL)
    except OSError as err:
        cuda_libs: Dict[str, str] = {
            'cublas': 'libcublas.so.*[0-9]',
            'cudnn': 'libcudnn.so.*[0-9]',
            'cuda_nvrtc': 'libnvrtc.so.*[0-9].*[0-9]',
            'cuda_runtime': 'libcudart.so.*[0-9].*[0-9]',
            'cuda_cupti': 'libcupti.so.*[0-9].*[0-9]',
            'cufft': 'libcufft.so.*[0-9]',
            'curand': 'libcurand.so.*[0-9]',
            'cusolver': 'libcusolver.so.*[0-9]', X
            'cusparse': 'libcusparse.so.*[0-9]', X
            'nccl': 'libnccl.so.*[0-9]', X
            'nvtx': 'libnvToolsExt.so.*[0-9]',
        }
        is_cuda_lib_err = [lib for lib in cuda_libs.values() if(lib.split('.')[0] in err.args[0])]
        # ... some more logic to load libs by looking through `sys.path` ...
```

On my system, the `CDLL()` call succeeds at loading `torch-2.0.0-cp39-cp39-manylinux1_x86_64.whl/torch/lib/libtorch_global_deps.so`, so it returns immediately without attempting to load the libraries in the `cuda_libs` dict. However, that `.so` file only links to a subset of the libraries listed above:

Some libraries from `cuda_libs` are missing from the `ldd` output. This is fine when the `nvidia-*` Python packages are installed in the same directory as Torch, because Python can Torch's RPATH  to find the packages. Specifically, the RPATH has a bunch of relative paths to the nvidia libraries, which look like this: 

```
$ORIGIN/../../nvidia/cublas/lib:$ORIGIN/../../nvidia/cuda_cupti/lib:$ORIGIN/../../nvidia/cuda_nvrtc/lib:$ORIGIN/../../nvidia/cuda_runtime/lib:$ORIGIN/../../nvidia/cudnn/lib:$ORIGIN/../../nvidia/cufft/lib:$ORIGIN/../../nvidia/curand/lib:$ORIGIN/../../nvidia/cusolver/lib:$ORIGIN/../../nvidia/cusparse/lib:$ORIGIN/../../nvidia/nccl/lib:$ORIGIN/../../nvidia/nvtx/lib:$ORIGIN
```

Unfortunately these relative paths do not work when Torch is installed in a different directory to the `nvidia-*` packages, which is the case for me.

`__init__.py` already has the logic necessary to fix this problem by scanning `sys.path` for the missing libraries. However, that logic currently only gets triggered when the `libtorch_global_deps` import fails. When I modify the code to always look for these libraries, I can import PyTorch again:

```python
    try:
        ctypes.CDLL(lib_path, mode=ctypes.RTLD_GLOBAL)
        raise OSError("libcudnn libnvrtc libcupti libcusolver libcusparse libnccl")  # always look for these libraries
    except OSError as err:
        cuda_libs: Dict[str, str] = {
            # ... etc. ...
```

Ideally `__init__.py` should use a more robust test to determine whether `libcudnn` and friends can be loaded. Probably the easiest fix is to link all the libs from `cuda_libs` into `libtorch_global_deps`.
