> Copy {{GaussianMixture}} implementation from mllib to ml, then we can add new 
> features to it.
> I left mllib {{GaussianMixture}} untouched, unlike some other algorithms to 
> wrap the ml implementation. For the following reasons:
> * mllib {{GaussianMixture}} allow k == 1, but ml does not.
> * mllib {{GaussianMixture}} supports setting initial model, but ml does not 
> support currently. (We will definitely add this feature for ml in the future)
> Meanwhile, There is a big performance improvement for {{GaussianMixture}} in 
> this task. Since the covariance matrix of multivariate gaussian distribution 
> is symmetric, we can only store the upper triangular part of the matrix and 
> it will greatly reduce the shuffled data size.
