Description

## 🚀 Feature

The proposed feature is to support GPU acceleration on AMD's ROCM stack.
We (AMD) have already ported pytorch and torchvision to support our ROCM stack, and all those changes are currently in the pytorch and torchvision master branches, so detectron2 is the next natural step.

This has been already implemented actually, I also just made a pull request.
