De-duplicate GPU parameters. (#4454)

* Only define `gpu_id` and `n_gpus` in `LearnerTrainParam`
* Pass LearnerTrainParam through XGBoost vid factory method.
* Disable all GPU usage when GPU related parameters are not specified (fixes XGBoost choosing GPU over aggressively).
* Test learner train param io.
* Fix gpu pickling.
