- Define a new tree struct embedded in the `RegTree`.
- Provide dispatching functions in `RegTree`.
- Fix some c++-17 warnings about the use of nodiscard (currently we disable the warning on
the CI).
- Use uint32_t instead of size_t for `bst_target_t` as it has a defined size and can be used
as part of dmlc parameter.
- Hide the `Segment` struct inside the categorical split matrix.
* Extract most of the functionality into `DMatrixCache`.
* Move API entry to independent file to reduce dependency on `predictor.h` file.
* Add test.

Empty partition is different from empty dataset. For the former case, each worker has
non-empty dask collections, but each collection might contain empty partition.
This PR prepares the GHistIndexMatrix to host the column matrix which is used by the hist tree method by accepting sparse_threshold parameter.
Some cleanups are made to ensure the correct batch param is being passed into DMatrix along with some additional tests for correctness of SimpleDMatrix.
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.
This is already partially supported but never properly tested. So the only possible way to use it is calling `numpy.ndarray.flatten` with `base_margin` before passing it into XGBoost. This PR adds proper support
for most of the data types along with tests.
* 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
* Support categorical data for dask functional interface and DQM.
* Implement categorical data support for GPU GK-merge.
* Add support for dask functional interface.
* Add support for DQM.
* Get newer cupy.
* Categorical prediction with CPU predictor and GPU predict leaf.
* Implement categorical prediction for CPU prediction.
* Implement categorical prediction for GPU predict leaf.
* Refactor the prediction functions to have a unified get next node function.

* Use normal predictor for dart booster.
* Implement `inplace_predict` for dart.
* Enable `dart` for dask interface now that it's thread-safe.
* categorical data should be working out of box for dart now.
The implementation is not very efficient as it has to pull back the data and
apply weight for each tree, but still a significant improvement over previous
implementation as now we no longer binary search for each sample.
* Fix output prediction shape on dataframe.
* Add a new API function for predicting on `DMatrix`. This function aligns
with rest of the `XGBoosterPredictFrom*` functions on semantic of function
arguments.
* Purge `ntree_limit` from libxgboost, use iteration instead.
* [dask] Use `inplace_predict` by default for dask sklearn models.
* [dask] Run prediction shape inference on worker instead of client.
The breaking change is in the Python sklearn `apply` function, I made it to be
consistent with other prediction functions where `best_iteration` is used by
default.
* 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.
