Adding more details on how to load things.

- Loading with memmap
- Loading a sharded tensor
- Moved some snippets to `candle-examples/src/lib.rs` This is because
managing book specific dependencies is a pain https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/issues/706
- This causes a non aligned inclusion  https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1856 which we have
to ignore fmt to remove.

mdbook might need some more love :)
