Yanbo Liang a3550e3747 [SPARK-11959][SPARK-15484][DOC][ML] Document WLS and IRLS
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
* Document ```WeightedLeastSquares```(normal equation) and ```IterativelyReweightedLeastSquares```.
* Copy ```L-BFGS``` documents from ```spark.mllib``` to ```spark.ml```.

Due to the session ```Optimization of linear methods``` is used for developers, I think we should provide the brief introduction of the optimization method, necessary references and how it implements in Spark. It's not necessary to paste all mathematical formula and derivation here. If developers/users want to learn more, they can track reference.

## How was this patch tested?
Document update, no tests.

Timothy Hunter 2ecbe02d5b [SPARK-12212][ML][DOC] Clarifies the difference between spark.ml, spark.mllib and mllib in the documentation.
Replaces a number of occurences of `MLlib` in the documentation that were meant to refer to the `spark.mllib` package instead. It should clarify for new users the difference between `spark.mllib` (the package) and MLlib (the umbrella project for ML in spark).

It also removes some files that I forgot to delete with #10207
