MLP: Allow one-hot encoded dependent var for classification JIRA:MADLIB-1222 MLP currently automatically encodes categorical variables for classification but does not allow already encoded arrays for dependent variables in mlp_classification. This commit lets users have an already encoded array for the dependent variable and train a model.
