    [SPARK-4129][MLlib] Performance tuning in MultivariateOnlineSummarizer

    In MultivariateOnlineSummarizer, breeze's activeIterator is used to loop 
through the nonZero elements in the vector. However, activeIterator doesn't 
perform well due to lots of overhead. In this PR, native while loop is used for 
both DenseVector and SparseVector.
    The benchmark result with 20 executors using mnist8m dataset:
    Before:
    DenseVector: 48.2 seconds
    SparseVector: 16.3 seconds
    After:
    DenseVector: 17.8 seconds
    SparseVector: 11.2 seconds
    Since MultivariateOnlineSummarizer is used in several places, the overall 
performance gain in mllib library will be significant with this PR.
