Since persistence handling is very algorithm-dependent, I perfer this solution:
1, add method {{preprocess(dataset: Dataset[_]): DataFrame}} in {{Predictor}},
and call it before {{train()}}, we do casting, columns selection and data
persistence (if necessary) in it.
2, add method {{postprocess}}, and call it after {{train()}}, we unpersist the
intermediate dataframe if needed.
3, for specific purpose, we can override it, like in current PR,
{{GeneralizedLinearRegression}} override {{preprocess}} to add a column
selection and casting for {{offsetCol}}.
I personally think that, to handle persistence, we can use more information:
for examples, for algs containing param {{maxIter}}, if {{maxIter}} is set 0 or
1, the input dataset may be unnecsssary to cache.
