Vadim Khotilovich a375ad2822 [R] maintenance Apr 2017 (#2237)
* [R] make sure things work for a single split model; fixes #2191

* [R] add option use_int_id to xgb.model.dt.tree

* [R] add example of exporting tree plot to a file

* [R] set save_period = NULL as default in xgboost() to be the same as in xgb.train; fixes #2182

* [R] it's a good practice after CRAN releases to bump up package version in dev

* [R] allow xgb.DMatrix construction from integer dense matrices

* [R] xgb.DMatrix: silent parameter; improve documentation

* [R] xgb.model.dt.tree code style changes

* [R] update NEWS with parameter changes

* [R] code safety & style; handle non-strict matrix and inherited classes of input and model; fixes #2242

* [R] change to x.y.z.p R-package versioning scheme and set version to 0.6.4.3

* [R] add an R package versioning section to the contributors guide

* [R] R-package/README.md: clean up the redundant old installation instructions, link the contributors guide

Description: Extreme Gradient Boosting, which is an efficient implementation
of the gradient boosting framework from Chen & Guestrin (2016) <doi:10.1145/2939672.2939785>.
This package is its R interface. The package includes efficient linear
model solver and tree learning algorithms. The package can automatically
do parallel computation on a single machine which could be more than 10
times faster than existing gradient boosting packages. It supports
various objective functions, including regression, classification and ranking.
The package is made to be extensible, so that users are also allowed to define
their own objectives easily.
