[mllib] GradientBoosting API cleanup and examples in Scala, Java

### Summary

* Made it easier to construct default Strategy and BoostingStrategy and to set parameters using simple types.
* Added Scala and Java examples for GradientBoostedTrees
* small cleanups and fixes

### Details

GradientBoosting bug fixes (“bug” = bad default options)
* Force boostingStrategy.weakLearnerParams.algo = Regression
* Force boostingStrategy.weakLearnerParams.impurity = impurity.Variance
* Only persist data if not yet persisted (since it causes an error if persisted twice)

BoostingStrategy
* numEstimators: renamed to numIterations
* removed subsamplingRate (duplicated by Strategy)
* removed categoricalFeaturesInfo since it belongs with the weak learner params (since boosting can be oblivious to feature type)
* Changed algo to var (not val) and added @BeanProperty, with overload taking String argument
* Added assertValid() method
* Updated defaultParams() method and eliminated defaultWeakLearnerParams() since that belongs in Strategy

Strategy (for DecisionTree)
* Changed algo to var (not val) and added @BeanProperty, with overload taking String argument
* Added setCategoricalFeaturesInfo method taking Java Map.
* Cleaned up assertValid
* Changed val’s to def’s since parameters can now be changed.
