[breaking] Remove the predictor param, allow fallback to prediction using DMatrix. (#9129)
- A `DeviceOrd` struct is implemented to indicate the device. It will eventually replace the `gpu_id` parameter.
- The `predictor` parameter is removed.
- Fallback to `DMatrix` when `inplace_predict` is not available.
- The heuristic for choosing a predictor is only used during training.

Rewrite sparse dmatrix using callbacks. (#7092)
- Reduce dependency on dmlc parsers and provide an interface for users to load data by themselves.
- Remove use of threaded iterator and IO queue.
- Remove `page_size`.

- Make sure the cache can not be violated.
- Provide an interface for internal algorithms to process data asynchronously.
