* Skip non-increasing test with external memory when subsample is used.
* Increase bin numbers for boost from prediction test. This mitigates the effect of
non-deterministic partitioning.
* Replace all uses of deprecated function sklearn.datasets.load_boston
* More renaming
* Fix bad name
* Update assertion
* Fix n boosted rounds.
* Avoid over regularization.
* Rebase.
* Avoid over regularization.

* Increased error in coordinate is mostly due to floating point error.
* Shotgun uses Hogwild!, which is non-deterministic and can have even greater
floating point error.
* Use hypothesis
* Allow int64 array interface for groups
* Add packages to Windows CI
* Add to travis
* Make sure device index is set correctly
* Fix dask-cudf test
* appveyor
* Fix test_gpu_coordinate.
* Use `gpu_coord_descent` in test.
* Reduce number of running rounds.
* Remove nthread.
* Use githubusercontent for r-appveyor.
* Use githubusercontent in travis r tests.
* Added finding quantiles on GPU.
- this includes datasets where weights are assigned to data rows
- as the quantiles found by the new algorithm are not the same
as those found by the old one, test thresholds in
tests/python-gpu/test_gpu_updaters.py have been adjusted.
* Adjustments and improved testing for finding quantiles on the GPU.
- added C++ tests for the DeviceSketch() function
- reduced one of the thresholds in test_gpu_updaters.py
- adjusted the cuts found by the find_cuts_k kernel
* fix rebase conflict
* [core] additional gblinear improvements
* [R] callback for gblinear coefficients history
* force eta=1 for gblinear python tests
* add top_k to GreedyFeatureSelector
* set eta=1 in shotgun test
* [core] fix SparsePage processing in gblinear; col-wise multithreading in greedy updater
* set sorted flag within TryInitColData
* gblinear tests: use scale, add external memory test
* fix multiclass for greedy updater
* fix whitespace
* fix typo
