Jiaming Yuan 7663de956c Run training with empty DMatrix. (#4990)
This makes GPU Hist robust in distributed environment as some workers might not
be associated with any data in either training or evaluation.

* Disable rabit mock test for now: See #5012 .

* Disable dask-cudf test at prediction for now: See #5003

* Launch dask job for all workers despite they might not have any data.
* Check 0 rows in elementwise evaluation metrics.

   Using AUC and AUC-PR still throws an error.  See #4663 for a robust fix.

* Add tests for edge cases.
* Add `LaunchKernel` wrapper handling zero sized grid.
* Move some parts of allreducer into a cu file.
* Don't validate feature names when the booster is empty.

* Sync number of columns in DMatrix.

  As num_feature is required to be the same across all workers in data split
  mode.

* Filtering in dask interface now by default syncs all booster that's not
empty, instead of using rank 0.

* Fix Jenkins' GPU tests.

* Install dask-cuda from source in Jenkins' test.

  Now all tests are actually running.

* Restore GPU Hist tree synchronization test.

* Check UUID of running devices.

  The check is only performed on CUDA version >= 10.x, as 9.x doesn't have UUID field.

* Fix CMake policy and project variables.

  Use xgboost_SOURCE_DIR uniformly, add policy for CMake >= 3.13.

* Fix copying data to CPU

* Fix race condition in cpu predictor.

* Fix duplicated DMatrix construction.

* Don't download extra nccl in CI script.

XGBoost is an optimized distributed gradient boosting library designed to be highly efficient, flexible and portable. It implements machine learning algorithms under the Gradient Boosting framework. XGBoost provides a parallel tree boosting (also known as GBDT, GBM) that solve many data science problems in a fast and accurate way. The same code runs on major distributed environment (Kubernetes, Hadoop, SGE, MPI, Dask) and can solve problems beyond billions of examples.
