* added mingw64 installation instruction, and library file copy.
* Change all `libxgboost.dll` to `xgboost.dll`
On Windows, the library file is called `xgboost.dll`, not `libxgboost.dll` as in the build doc previously
In line 461, the "size_t offset = 0;" should be declared before any calculation, otherwise will cause compilation error.
```
I:\Libraries\xgboost\src\c_api\c_api.cc(416): error C2146: Missing ";" before "offset" [I:\Libraries\xgboost\build\objxgboost.vcxproj]

* Add interaction effects and cox loss
* Minimize whitespace changes
* Cox loss now no longer needs a pre-sorted dataset.
* Address code review comments
* Remove mem check, rename to pred_interactions, include bias
* Make lint happy
* More lint fixes
* Fix cox loss indexing
* Fix main effects and tests
* Fix lint
* Use half interaction values on the off-diagonals
* Fix lint again
- thrust::copy() called from dvec::copy() for gpairs invoked a GPU kernel instead of
cudaMemcpy()
- this resulted in illegal memory access if the GPU running the kernel could not access
the data being copied
- new version of dvec::copy() for thrust::device_ptr iterators calls cudaMemcpy(),
avoiding the problem.
* Added GPU objective function and no-copy interface.
- xgboost::HostDeviceVector<T> syncs automatically between host and device
- no-copy interfaces have been added
- default implementations just sync the data to host
and call the implementations with std::vector
- GPU objective function, predictor, histogram updater process data
directly on GPU

* fix the pattern in dev script and version mismatch
After installing ``gcc@5``, ``CMAKE_C_COMPILER`` will not be set to gcc-5 in some macOS environment automatically and the installation of xgboost will still fail. Manually setting the compiler will solve the problem.

* Refactor newly added methods into TmpBoosterManager
* Add two files which is missing in previous commit
* Rename TmpBooster to checkpoint
* [jvm-packages] Fixed test/train persistence
Prior to this patch both data sets were persisted in the same directory,
i.e. the test data replaced the training one which led to
* training on less data (since usually test < train) and
* test loss being exactly equal to the training loss.
Closes#2945.
* Cleanup file cache after the training
* Addressed review comments
