    Returns a discriminator

    Our current implementation provides three types of discriminators:
        [basic]: 'PatchGAN' classifier described in the original pix2pix paper.
        It can classify whether 70×70 overlapping patches are real or fake.
        Such a patch-level discriminator architecture has fewer parameters
        than a full-image discriminator and can work on arbitrarily-sized images
        in a fully convolutional fashion.

        [n_layers]: With this mode, you can specify the number of conv layers in the discriminator
        with the parameter <n_layers_D> (default=3 as used in [basic] (PatchGAN).)

        [pixel]: 1x1 PixelGAN discriminator can classify whether a pixel is real or not.
        It encourages greater color diversity but has no effect on spatial statistics.

    The discriminator has been initialized by <init_net>. It uses Leakly RELU for non-linearity.
