[MLlib] SPARK-1536: multiclass classification support for decision tree

The ability to perform multiclass classification is a big advantage for using decision trees and was a highly requested feature for mllib. This pull request adds multiclass classification support to the MLlib decision tree. It also adds sample weights support using WeightedLabeledPoint class for handling unbalanced datasets during classification. It will also support algorithms such as AdaBoost which requires instances to be weighted.

It handles the special case where the categorical variables cannot be ordered for multiclass classification and thus the optimizations used for speeding up binary classification cannot be directly used for multiclass classification with categorical variables. More specifically, for m categories in a categorical feature, it analyses all the ```2^(m-1) - 1``` categorical splits provided that #splits are less than the maxBins provided in the input. This condition will not be met for features with large number of categories -- using decision trees is not recommended for such datasets in general since the categorical features are favored over continuous features. Moreover, the user can use a combination of tricks (increasing bin size of the tree algorithms, use binary encoding for categorical features or use one-vs-all classification strategy) to avoid these constraints.

The new code is accompanied by unit tests and has also been tested on the iris and covtype datasets.
