对于blob.h文件。
先看成员变量。定义了6个保护的成员变量，包括前、后向传播的数据，新、旧形状数据（？），
数据个数及容量。
再看成员函数。包括构造函数（4个参数），reshape（改变blob形状），以及很多inline函数。

Blob：4个维度 n x c x h x w；
bottom[0] 、bottom[1]代表该层有几个输入。
bottom[0]->count(): 输入中，元素的总维数（个数）
bottom[0]->nums(): 输入中，块（block）的个数，该参数还对应batch_size,即同时输入了几张图片
c：是卷积核（filter）的个数，每个卷积核产生一个通道的输出；在输入层，c直接就是图像的通道数；
还有一个变量，dim;：每个块的维度（元素个数）
形象化：
| xxxxx | xxxxx | xxxxx | xxxxx | xxxxx | xxxxx | xxxxx | xxxxx |
上图，nums = 8， dim = 5， count = 5*8 =40；
