Save checkpoing under the lightning_logs/version_X/ directory

🐛 Bug

After running training the output file structure looks like

epoch=9_vl_val_loss=10.10.ckpt
lightning_logs/
├── version_0
│   ├── events.out.tfevents.1585053395.dltn.22357.0
│   └── meta_tags.csv

but the expected file structure looks like

lightning_logs/
├── version_0
│   ├── events.out.tfevents.1585053395.dltn.22357.0
│   └── meta_tags.csv  
│   └── epoch=9_vl_val_loss=10.10.ckpt

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Use PyTorch 1.4 and PL 0.7.1
2. Run the following snippet “checkpoint_demo.py”

Code sample

        return {'val_loss': val_loss, 'log': {'val_loss': val_loss}}

    def training_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
        x, y = batch

    def validation_step(self, batch, batch_idx):

    trainer = Trainer(max_epochs=10, checkpoint_callback=CheckpointDemo.createModelCheckpoint())
    trainer.fit(model)

@TylerYep About duplicate. You are right! It is Duplicate of https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/issues/1207

[TylerYep]

Two questions about this bug:

1. If ModelCheckpoint saves to the lightning_log, you will be unable to specify a way to save a file to any other location - would this be preferable? The current API allows you to specify any location to add it to, including the lightning_log/version of your choice.

2. The commented line is an empty string because it is missing the f in the f-string f"<content>". This is why the file cannot save. Once I add the f, epoch is not a defined variable. Does this fix that particular error?
