Description

Currently we drop all of the init functions from the Lux models. However, for SciML Applications it is quite critical to support those. Proposed solution: Store the lux model along side the equivalent simple chains version. Instead of calling params on the simplechains model call initialparameters on the lux model and then flatten it.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Modify the conversion to SimpleChains by storing the original Lux model and using initialparameters to flatten parameters.
