Title: Outlier and novelty detection

This pull-request is about providing tools for outlier and novelty detection:

- modification of the OneClassSVM example in order to illustrate novelty detection ;
- implementation of a mixin to be combined with a covariance object in order to perform outlier detection ;
- creation of an example to illustrate outlier detection, and comparison between OneClassSVM- and covariance-based methods ;
- documentation about robust covariance estimation, novelty detection, outlier detection + link to the examples.

/!\ This pull-request use things that are introduced in a previous pull-request about refactoring the robust covariance estimator objects. This latter PR should be merged first.
