Extend array interface to handle ndarray. (#7434)
* Extend array interface to handle ndarray.

The `ArrayInterface` class is extended to support multi-dim array inputs. Previously this
class handles only 2-dim (vector is also matrix).  This PR specifies the expected
dimension at compile-time and the array interface can perform various checks automatically
for input data. Also, adapters like CSR are more rigorous about their input.  Lastly, row
vector and column vector are handled without intervention from the caller.

[jvm-packages][xgboost4j-gpu] Support GPU dataframe and DeviceQuantileDMatrix (#7195)
Following classes are added to support dataframe in java binding:

- `Column` is an abstract type for a single column in tabular data.
- `ColumnBatch` is an abstract type for dataframe.

- `CuDFColumn` is an implementaiton of `Column` that consume cuDF column
- `CudfColumnBatch` is an implementation of `ColumnBatch` that consumes cuDF dataframe.

- `DeviceQuantileDMatrix` is the interface for quantized data.

The Java implementation mimics the Python interface and uses `__cuda_array_interface__` protocol for memory indexing.  One difference is on JVM package, the data batch is staged on the host as java iterators cannot be reset.
