SAMOA-52: Fix nominal attribute problem in VHT
1. We don't need to split if the class distribution in a node is pure
2. We need to reset the best and second best attribute after an attempt of
split.
Every time we want to decide if we do a split, we should not reuse the best
and second best split from previous attempts to split. So each time we want to
decide if we split or not, we recollect the information from the attributes,
and then with the best and second best split, decide using the Hoeffding bound.
After that, we need to reset the best and second best split, and start again.
