Description

🚀 The feature

#6323 Mentions that torchvision is looking to implement LAMB optimizer.
@datumbox I would very much like to take this issue and create a PR.

Motivation, pitch

LAMB optimizer was created because LARS optimizer performed poorly on model with attention mechanism (mainly). LAMB has shown to achieve very good performance gains across various tasks and I believe that it should be implemented in torchvision.
