* Add test for multiclass metrics

* Make test less sensitive to avoid floating-point issues.

* Change tabs to spaces.

* Fix problem with test in Python 2. Refactor to use np.testing. Decrease number of training rounds so loss is larger and easier to compare.

* Move multiclass tests into test_engine.py

* Change parameter name from top_k_threshold to multi_error_top_k.

* first metric only in earlystopping for cli

* code clean

* added note about CLI only usage

* removed note about CLI only usage

* added all necessary includes - fixed build/include_what_you_use error

* fixed the order of includes (build/include_order)

* Add configuration parameters for CEGB.

* Add skeleton CEGB tree learner

Like the original CEGB version, this inherits from SerialTreeLearner.
Currently, it changes nothing from the original.

* Track features used in CEGB tree learner.

* Pull CEGB tradeoff and coupled feature penalty from config.

* Implement finding best splits for CEGB

This is heavily based on the serial version, but just adds using the coupled penalties.

* Set proper defaults for cegb parameters.

* Ensure sanity checks don't switch off CEGB.

* Implement per-data-point feature penalties in CEGB.

* Implement split penalty and remove unused parameters.

* Merge changes from CEGB tree learner into serial tree learner

* Represent features_used_in_data by a bitset, to reduce the memory overhead of CEGB, and add sanity checks for the lengths of the penalty vectors.

* Fix bug where CEGB would incorrectly penalise a previously used feature

The tree learner did not update the gains of previously computed leaf splits when splitting a leaf elsewhere in the tree.
This caused it to prefer new features due to incorrectly penalising splitting on previously used features.

* Document CEGB parameters and add them to the appropriate section.

* Remove leftover reference to cegb tree learner.

* Remove outdated diff.

* Fix warnings

* Fix minor issues identified by @StrikerRUS.

* Add docs section on CEGB, including citation.

* Fix link.

* Fix CI failure.

* Add some unit tests

* Fix pylint issues.

* Fix remaining pylint issue

* Initial attempt to implement appending features in-memory to another data set

The intent is for this to enable munging files together easily, without needing to round-trip via numpy or write multiple copies to disk.
In turn, that enables working more efficiently with data sets that were written separately.

* Implement Dataset.dump_text, and fix small bug in appending of group bin boundaries.

Dumping to text enables us to compare results, without having to worry about issues like features being reordered.

* Add basic tests for validation logic for add_features_from.

* Remove various internal mapping items from dataset text dumps

These are too sensitive to the exact feature order chosen, which is not visible to the user.
Including them in tests appears unnecessary, as the data dumping code should provide enough coverage.

* Add test that add_features_from results in identical data sets according to dump_text.

* Add test that booster behaviour after using add_features_from matches that of training on the full data

This checks:
- That training after add_features_from works at all
- That add_features_from does not cause training to misbehave

* Expose feature_penalty and monotone_types/constraints via get_field

These getters allow us to check that add_features_from does the right thing with these vectors.

* Add tests that add_features correctly handles feature_penalty and monotone_constraints.

* Ensure add_features_from properly frees the added dataset and add unit test for this

Since add_features_from moves the feature group pointers from the added dataset to the dataset being added to, the added dataset is invalid after the call.
We must ensure we do not try and access this handle.

* Remove some obsolete TODOs

* Tidy up DumpTextFile by using a single iterator for each feature

This iterators were also passed around as raw pointers without being freed, which is now fixed.

* Factor out offsetting logic in AddFeaturesFrom

* Remove obsolete TODO

* Remove another TODO

This one is debatable, test code can be a bit messy and duplicate-heavy, factoring it out tends to end badly.
Leaving this for now, will revisit if adding more tests later on becomes a mess.

* Add documentation for newly-added methods.

* Fix whitespace issues identified by pylint.

* Fix a few more whitespace issues.

* Fix doc comments

* Implement deep copying for feature groups.

* Replace awkward std::move usage by emplace_back, and reduce vector size to num_features rather than num_total_features.

* Copy feature groups in addFeaturesFrom, rather than moving them.
