Test Python game engine

[alesolano]

Description

@chucheria shared this new game engine that claims to be 45x faster than the one we are using. That's a huge statement. Let's test it.

Requirements

Things you need in order to complete the issue.

• new dockerfile where it git clones the repo: https://github.com/glmcdona/LuxPythonEnvGym
• train.py and clarai.py now import luxai2021.game instead of lux

Acceptance Criteria

Criteria that must be met in order to close the issue successfully.

• train.py is executed successfully with the new import
• time measurement of the new train.py execution along 10 episodes.
• time measurement of the old train.py execution along 10 episodes.

Lots of problems with the installation. I've left an open issue in the repo: glmcdona/LuxPythonEnvGym#107

EDIT: SOLVED!

OK, things are more complicated than I thought.

Their game.py is very different than the standard game.py. Our code breaks since, for example, _initialize(), _update() or players are not methods/attributes of the class Game.

@chucheria @DelgadoPanadero can you take a look at the difference between those two game.py files? Do you see a way that we can easily use their engine without changing too much of our code? Is it worth it?
