The following error is hit during tf.saved_model export:
The reason is TF has more restricted constrain on the variable names at root scope. The variable name is from state_dict of ExportedProgram, which doesn't have such naming constrain.
Root scope name constrain: [A-Za-z0-9.][A-Za-z0-9_.\-/]*
Non-root scope name constrain: [A-Za-z0-9_.\-/]*
code ref in TF
Name mangling: Add 'k' if the variable name starts with '_\-/'
Testing: Manually test the model failed to be exported to tf.saved_model
