sig-ce learns to ignore by zeroing out the loss/diff at targets equal to the configured `ignore_label`. n.b. as of now the loss/diff are not properly normalized when there are ignored targets. sig-ce loss should adopt the same normalization options as softmax loss.

sig-ce loss handles all the same normalizations as the softmax loss; refer to BVLC#3296 for more detail. this preserves the default normalization for sig-ce loss: batch size.

Sigmoid cross-entropy loss learns to ignore by zeroing out the loss/diff at targets equal to
the configured
ignore_label.ignore_labelNote that sig-ce loss and softmax loss have different defaults for normalization: batch size (sig-ce) and valid (softmax).
TODO: the common normalization and ignore logic should be pulled up into
LossLayer, and layers should die loudly by default instead of silently ignoring these options.
