* Use `UpdateAllowUnknown' for non-model related parameter.
Model parameter can not pack an additional boolean value due to binary IO
format. This commit deals only with non-model related parameter configuration.
* Add tidy command line arg for use-dmlc-gtest.
* Apply Configurable to objective functions.
* Apply Model to Learner and Regtree, gbm.
* Add Load/SaveConfig to objs.
* Refactor obj tests to use smart pointer.
* Dummy methods for Save/Load Model.
* Refactor configuration [Part II].
* General changes:
** Remove `Init` methods to avoid ambiguity.
** Remove `Configure(std::map<>)` to avoid redundant copying and prepare for
parameter validation. (`std::vector` is returned from `InitAllowUnknown`).
** Add name to tree updaters for easier debugging.
* Learner changes:
** Make `LearnerImpl` the only source of configuration.
All configurations are stored and carried out by `LearnerImpl::Configure()`.
** Remove booster in C API.
Originally kept for "compatibility reason", but did not state why. So here
we just remove it.
** Add a `metric_names_` field in `LearnerImpl`.
** Remove `LazyInit`. Configuration will always be lazy.
** Run `Configure` before every iteration.
* Predictor changes:
** Allocate both cpu and gpu predictor.
** Remove cpu_predictor from gpu_predictor.
`GBTree` is now used to dispatch the predictor.
** Remove some GPU Predictor tests.
* IO
No IO changes. The binary model format stability is tested by comparing
hashing value of save models between two commits
* Only define `gpu_id` and `n_gpus` in `LearnerTrainParam`
* Pass LearnerTrainParam through XGBoost vid factory method.
* Disable all GPU usage when GPU related parameters are not specified (fixes XGBoost choosing GPU over aggressively).
* Test learner train param io.
* Fix gpu pickling.
* Enable running objectives with 0 GPU.
* Enable 0 GPU for objectives.
* Add doc for GPU objectives.
* Fix some objectives defaulted to running on all GPUs.
* Multi-GPU support in GPUPredictor.
- GPUPredictor is multi-GPU
- removed DeviceMatrix, as it has been made obsolete by using HostDeviceVector in DMatrix
* Replaced pointers with spans in GPUPredictor.
* Added a multi-GPU predictor test.
* Fix multi-gpu test.
* Fix n_rows < n_gpus.
* Reinitialize shards when GPUSet is changed.
* Tests range of data.
* Remove commented code.
* Remove commented code.
* Implement Transform class.
* Add tests for softmax.
* Use Transform in regression, softmax and hinge objectives, except for Cox.
* Mark old gpu objective functions deprecated.
* static_assert for softmax.
* Split up multi-gpu tests.
