[proto] Reduce number of calls of __torch_function__ (#6681)

* [proto] Reduce number of calls of __torch_function__

* Use DisableTorchFunction and super

* Use self._tensor

* Fixes mypy and color space handling

* revert Image.new_like

* WIP

* Perf opt with ref to tensor and properties

* Removed requires_grad property

* Use _tensor ref

* Revert "Use _tensor ref"

This reverts commit 38f8e21.

* Update torchvision/prototype/features/_feature.py
