* 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
- 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.
Other than modularizing the split evaluation function, this PR also removes some more functions including `InitNewNodes` and `BuildNodeStats` among some other unused variables. Also, scattered code like setting leaf weights is grouped into the split evaluator and `NodeEntry` is simplified and made private. Another subtle difference with the original implementation is that the modified code doesn't call `tree[nidx].Parent()` to traversal upward.

* 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.
