I think we need to understand if skip causes error in both map-style and Iterable datasets, or only in the newly added IterableDataset case.
If it's the latter we should just revert #521, rather than universally use next for both, because it would make the healthy case slow too.

I would suggest that we land the PR first. It is better to have a slower checkpoint resume than an incorrect silent accuracy failure. It's blocking several accuracy verifications. Or at least we should make the default C4 dataset work for now.

Fix issue #809
The current
self._data.skip(self._sample_idx)could not get the correct data for c_4 dataset.Thus we switch to next() first before the fix is landed.
Test plan:
We reproduce the #809 by resuming from checkpoint at step 500, then compare the loss curve in 3 conditions:
Warning
for c_4 dataset, if we resume from a large enough step, we call next() for
self._sample_idxtimes, resuming from checkpoint would be much slower than using .skip()Next step:
add unit test:
