Pytorch Lighting 2.0 Compatibility

Pytorch Lightning introduced breaking changes in the ways devices and accelerators are specified. We updated the code and example models to reflect that. For details, see the [PR](https://github.com/lightly-ai/lightly/commit/dce4cc0c18c4db5cda5fa9b3cd8af8dbd9d08df3).

Benchmarks now use transforms
The benchmarks now do the augmentations (e.g. colour jitter) in the dataset transform instead of the collate function of the dataloader and have been updated. For details, see the [PR](https://github.com/lightly-ai/lightly/pull/1076)

Other changes.
- The `ApiWorkflowClient` is now pickable, improving multithreading capabilities.
- The LabelBox export now supports LabelBox format v4.
- Smaller fixes for a better user experience.

Changes
* Raise error when trying to schedule a Lightly Worker job with unknown configuration arguments.
* Add `get_compute_worker_run_checkpoint_url` method to `ApiWorkflowClient`, allowing to access a pretrained checkpoint from the Lightly Worker by URL.

* Make Masked Autoencoder work with half-precision training.

Other
* The lightly package is now formatted using the [black](https://github.com/psf/black) code formatter and [isort](https://github.com/PyCQA/isort).
