SPARK-1544 Add support for deep decision trees.
@etrain and I came with a PR for arbitrarily deep decision trees at the cost of multiple passes over the data at deep tree levels.
To summarize:
1) We take a parameter that indicates the amount of memory users want to reserve for computation on each worker (and 2x that at the driver).
2) Using that information, we calculate two things - the maximum depth to which we train as usual (which is, implicitly, the maximum number of nodes we want to train in parallel), and the size of the groups we should use in the case where we exceed this depth.

The node depth is equal to the `maxDepth` training parameter 2. No split candidate leads to an information gain at the node. +### Max memory requirements + +For faster processing, the decision tree algorithm performs simultaneous histogram computations for all nodes at each level of the tree. This could lead to high memory requirements at deeper levels of the tree leading to memory overflow errors. To alleviate this problem, a 'maxMemoryInMB' training parameter is provided which specifies the maximum amount of memory at the workers (twice as much at the master) to be allocated to the histogram computation. The default value is conservatively chosen to be 128 MB to allow the decision algorithm to work in most scenarios. Once the memory requirements for a level-wise computation crosses the `maxMemoryInMB` threshold, the node training tasks at each subsequent level is split into smaller tasks. + ### Practical limitations -1.
