Dmatrix refactor stage 1 (#3301)
* Use sparse page as singular CSR matrix representation

* Simplify dmatrix methods

* Reduce statefullness of batch iterators

* BREAKING CHANGE: Remove prob_buffer_row parameter. Users are instead recommended to sample their dataset as a preprocessing step before using XGBoost.
