- The new implementation is more strict as only binary labels are accepted. The previous implementation converts values greater than 1 to 1.
- Deterministic GPU. (no atomic add).
- Fix top-k handling.
- Precise definition of MAP. (There are other variants on how to handle top-k).
- Refactor GPU ranking tests.
- Define a new tree struct embedded in the `RegTree`.
- Provide dispatching functions in `RegTree`.
- Fix some c++-17 warnings about the use of nodiscard (currently we disable the warning on
the CI).
- Use uint32_t instead of size_t for `bst_target_t` as it has a defined size and can be used
as part of dmlc parameter.
- Hide the `Segment` struct inside the categorical split matrix.
* Fix CPU bin compression with categorical data.
* The bug causes the maximum category to be lesser than 256 or the maximum number of bins when
the input data is dense.
* Extract most of the functionality into `DMatrixCache`.
* Move API entry to independent file to reduce dependency on `predictor.h` file.
* Add test.

* Thrust 1.17 removes the experimental/pinned_allocator.
When xgboost is brought into a large project it can
be compiled against Thrust 1.17+ which don't offer
this experimental allocator.
To ensure that going forward xgboost works in all environments we provide a xgboost namespaced version of
the pinned_allocator that previously was in Thrust.
* Configuration for init estimation.
* Check whether the model needs configuration based on const attribute `ModelFitted`
instead of a mutable state.
* Add parameter `boost_from_average` to tell whether the user has specified base score.
* Add tests.
* Intoducing Column Wise Hist Building
