Fix TF exports >= 2GB (#6292)

* Fix exporting saved_model: pb exceeds 2GB

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Replace TF v1.x API with TF v2.x API for saved_model export

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Clean up

* Remove lambda in tf.function()

* Revert "Remove lambda in tf.function()" to be compatible with TF v2.4

This reverts commit 46c7931f11.

* Fix for pre-commit.ci

* Cleanup1

* Cleanup2

* Backwards compatibility update

* Update common.py

* Update common.py

* Cleanup3
