[jvm-packages][xgboost4j-gpu] Support GPU dataframe and DeviceQuantileDMatrix (#7195)
Following classes are added to support dataframe in java binding:

- `Column` is an abstract type for a single column in tabular data.
- `ColumnBatch` is an abstract type for dataframe.

- `CuDFColumn` is an implementaiton of `Column` that consume cuDF column
- `CudfColumnBatch` is an implementation of `ColumnBatch` that consumes cuDF dataframe.

- `DeviceQuantileDMatrix` is the interface for quantized data.

The Java implementation mimics the Python interface and uses `__cuda_array_interface__` protocol for memory indexing.  One difference is on JVM package, the data batch is staged on the host as java iterators cannot be reset.
