[py312] Fix test_tensor.py (#46669)

To upgrade to py312 we need to upgrade to `pandas>=2.0.0`. This upgrade
introduced a breaking change in the syntax of some of our code / tests:
> Changed behavior in setting values with df.loc[:, foo] = bar or
df.iloc[:, foo] = bar, these now always attempt to set values inplace
before falling back to casting ([GH
45333](pandas-dev/pandas#45333))

As a result we needed to update these uses of loc to do direct
assignment.

added a
method in Tune, I've added it in `doc/source/tune/api/` under the
           corresponding `.rst` file.
- [ ] I've made sure the tests are passing. Note that there might be a
few flaky tests, see the recent failures at https://flakey-tests.ray.io/
