* Implement ubjson.
This is a partial implementation of UBJSON with support for typed arrays. Some missing
features are `f64`, typed object, and the no-op.
This PR changes base_margin into a 3-dim array, with one of them being reserved for multi-target classification. Also, a breaking change is made for binary serialization due to extra dimension along with a fix for saving the feature weights. Lastly, it unifies the prediction initialization between CPU and GPU. After this PR, the meta info setter in Python will be based on array interface.
On GPU we use rouding factor to truncate the gradient for deterministic results. This PR changes the gradient representation to fixed point number with exponent aligned with rounding factor.
[breaking] Drop non-deterministic histogram.
Use fixed point for shared memory.
This PR is to improve the performance of GPU Hist.

- 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 number of pages in memory is bounded.
- Make sure the cache can not be violated.
- Provide an interface for internal algorithms to process data asynchronously.
* 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.
* Stop printing out message.
* Remove R specialization.
The printed message is not really useful anyway, without a reproducible example
there's no way to fix it. But if there's a reproducible example, we can always
obtain these information by a debugger. Removing the `printf` function avoids
creating the context in kernel.
* Make external memory data partitioning deterministic.
* Change the meaning of `page_size` from bytes to number of rows.
* Design a data pool.
* Note for external memory.
* Enable unity build on Windows CI.
* Force garbage collect on test.
* fixed some endian issues
* Use dmlc::ByteSwap() to simplify code
* Fix lint check
* [CI] Add test for s390x
* Download latest CMake on s390x
* Fix a bug in my code
* Save magic number in dmatrix with byteswap on big-endian machine
* Save version in binary with byteswap on big-endian machine
* Load scalar with byteswap in MetaInfo
* Add a debugging message
* Handle arrays correctly when byteswapping
* EOF can also be 255
* Handle magic number in MetaInfo carefully
* Skip Tree.Load test for big-endian, since the test manually builds little-endian binary model
* Handle missing packages in Python tests
* Don't use boto3 in model compatibility tests
* Add s390 Docker file for local testing
* Add model compatibility tests
* Add R compatibility test
* Revert "Add R compatibility test"
