This pr addresses #256. By catching ImportErrors when importing the tensorflow and onnx parsers, we can prevent errors caused by tensorflow or onnx/onnxruntime not being installed. This allows tensorflow users to use maraboupy without ever needing to install or worry about onnx/onnxruntime. They'd be able to use Marabou.read_tf(), but would get an error if they tried to run Marabou.read_onnx().
Users do get a warning when they import Marabou but don't have tensorflow or onnx/onnxruntime installed. The warning will let people that they need to install some packages if they want to use that input parser. However, they will still be able to use Maraboupy's other parsers without error.
