Sets the backend (cpu, webgl, wasm, etc) responsible for creating tensors and
executing operations on those tensors. Returns a promise that resolves
to a boolean if the backend initialization was successful.
Note this disposes the current backend, if any, as well as any tensors
associated with it. A new backend is initialized, even if it is of the
same type as the previous one.
Parameters
backendName: string
The name of the backend. Currently supports
'webgl'|'cpu' in the browser, 'tensorflow' under node.js
(requires tfjs-node), and 'wasm' (requires tfjs-backend-wasm).
