[SPARK-1212, Part II] Support sparse data in MLlib

In PR apache/spark#117, we added dense/sparse vector data model and updated KMeans to support sparse input. This PR is to replace all other `Array[Double]` usage by `Vector` in generalized linear models (GLMs) and Naive Bayes. Major changes:

1. `LabeledPoint` becomes `LabeledPoint(Double, Vector)`.
2. Methods that accept `RDD[Array[Double]]` now accept `RDD[Vector]`. We cannot support both in an elegant way because of type erasure.
3. Mark 'createModel' and 'predictPoint' protected because they are not for end users.
4. Add libSVMFile to MLContext.
5. NaiveBayes can accept arbitrary labels (introducing a breaking change to Python's `NaiveBayesModel`).
6. Gradient computation no longer creates temp vectors.
7. Column normalization and centering are removed from Lasso and Ridge because the operation will densify the data. Simple feature transformation can be done before training.

TODO:
1. ~~Use axpy when possible.~~
2. ~~Optimize Naive Bayes.~~
