* Accept array interface for csr and array.
* Accept an optional proxy dmatrix for metainfo.
This constructs an explicit `_ProxyDMatrix` type in Python.
* Remove unused doc.
* Add strict output.
* Initial support for distributed LTR using dask.
* Support `qid` in libxgboost.
* Refactor `predict` and `n_features_in_`, `best_[score/iteration/ntree_limit]`
to avoid duplicated code.
* Define `DaskXGBRanker`.
The dask ranker doesn't support group structure, instead it uses query id and
convert to group ptr internally.
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`.
* Implement early stopping with training continuation.
* Add new C API for obtaining boosted rounds.
* Fix off by 1 in `save_best`.

* 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.
This PR is meant the end the confusion around best_ntree_limit and unify model slicing. We have multi-class and random forests, asking users to understand how to set ntree_limit is difficult and error prone.
* Implement the save_best option in early stopping.
