[autoparallel] modify comm nodes' memory cost in construct chain (#2263)

* [autoparallel] align the data_ptr with the old version of auto activation checkpoint pipeline

* [autoparallel] using fwd_time and bwd_time instead of fwd_flop and bwd_flop

* [autoparallel] specifycomm nodes' memory cost in construct chain
