- Remove unused parameters. There are still many warnings that are not yet
addressed. Currently, the warnings in dmlc-core dominate the error log.
- Remove `distributed` parameter from metric.
- Fixes some warnings about signed comparison.
- Optionally switch to c++17
- Use rmm CMake target.
- Workaround compiler errors.
- Fix GPUMetric inheritance.
- Run death tests even if it's built with RMM support.

Support adaptive tree, a feature supported by both sklearn and lightgbm. The tree leaf is recomputed based on residue of labels and predictions after construction.
For l1 error, the optimal value is the median (50 percentile).
This is marked as experimental support for the following reasons:
- The value is not well defined for distributed training, where we might have empty leaves for local workers. Right now I just use the original leaf value for computing the average with other workers, which might cause significant errors.
- Some follow-ups are required, for exact, pruner, and optimization for quantile function. Also, we need to calculate the initial estimation.
This is the one last PR for removing omp global variable.
* Add context object to the `DMatrix`. This bridges `DMatrix` with https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/issues/7308 .
* Require context to be available at the construction time of booster.
* Add `n_threads` support for R csc DMatrix constructor.
* Remove `omp_get_max_threads` in R glue code.
* Remove threading utilities that rely on omp global variable.
* Add num target model parameter, which is configured from input labels.
* Change elementwise metric and indexing for weights.
* Add demo.
* Add tests.
* Add a new ctor to tensor for `initilizer_list`.
* Change labels from host device vector to tensor.
* Rename the field from `labels_` to `labels` since it's a public member.
* Use type aliases for discard iterators
* update to include host_vector as thrust 1.12 doesn't bring it in as a side-effect
* cub::DispatchRadixSort requires signed offset types
* Re-implement ROC-AUC.
* Binary
* MultiClass
* LTR
* Add documents.
This PR resolves a few issues:
- Define a value when the dataset is invalid, which can happen if there's an
empty dataset, or when the dataset contains only positive or negative values.
- Define ROC-AUC for multi-class classification.
- Define weighted average value for distributed setting.
- A correct implementation for learning to rank task. Previous
implementation is just binary classification with averaging across groups,
which doesn't measure ordered learning to rank.
For the `gamma-nloglik` eval metric, small positive values in the labels are causing `NaN`'s in the outputs, as reported here: https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/issues/5349. This will add clipping on them, similar to what is done in other metrics like `poisson-nloglik` and `logloss`.
