Vadim Khotilovich 74db9757b3 [R package] GPU support (#2732)
* [R] MSVC compatibility

* [GPU] allow seed in BernoulliRng up to size_t and scale to uint32_t

* R package build with cmake and CUDA

* R package CUDA build fixes and cleanups

* always export the R package native initialization routine on windows

* update the install instructions doc

* fix lint

* use static_cast directly to set BernoulliRng seed

* [R] demo for GPU accelerated algorithm

* tidy up the R package cmake stuff

* R pack cmake: installs main dependency packages if needed

* [R] version bump in DESCRIPTION

* update NEWS

* added short missing/sparse values explanations to FAQ

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.
