sxjscience commented on issue #17051: fix parameter names in the estimator api

   @leezu. As @szha has explained, "contrib is experimental and is not subject 
to semantic versioning". Thus, it is valid to change the API inside contrib for 
1.x versions. Also, I don't think we should announce Estimator as a stable 
feature in 1.6.0 because we are still actively developing this functionality.
   
   I expressed my concern here because I think we need to respect @ptrendx who 
has been doing tons of works for the 1.6.0 release process. We should avoid 
adding new functionalities after the code freeze time because it's not a good 
engineering practice even if it's in contrib.
   
   For this PR, it's safe to be merged to master as it just changes the name 
and the order of the arguments. However, adding it to 1.6.0 starts a bad 
practice of continuously updating contrib in the code freeze status.
