* Fix typos and messages in docs
* parameter.md: Add docs for updater_seq
Mention the updater_seq parameter which sets the order of the tree
updaters to run and also specifies which ones to run. This can be
useful when pruning is not required or even a custom plugin is
being built along with xgboost.
The `cd ..;` in the one liner takes you up a directory instead of into the xgboost directory. This will cause that step of the installation to fail. It seems like you are meant to enter the xgboost directory as you did in the instructions for installing xgboost without openmp.

* Fixed OpenMP installation on MacOSX with gcc-6
- Modified makefile from gcc-5 to gcc-6
- Removed deprecated install instructions from doc (gcc-5 was automatically forced if available in makefile on OSX)
make math better, specifically, unify the notation for Theta or theta. changed basic linear model notation from weight w to theta to make more consistent. Changed Obj function notation also
