Checks whether the provided export directory could contain a SavedModel.

    tf.saved_model.contains_saved_model(
        export_dir
    )

Note that the method does not load any data by itself. If the method returns
`false`, the export directory definitely does not contain a SavedModel. If the
method returns `true`, the export directory may contain a SavedModel but
provides no guarantee that it can be loaded.
