> DecisionTree splits on continuous features by choosing an array of values
> from a subsample of the data.
> Currently, it does not check for identical values in the subsample, so it
> could end up having multiple copies of the same split. This is not an error,
> but it could be improved to be more adaptive to the data.
> Proposal: In findSplitsBins, check for identical values, and do some
> searching in order to find a set of unique splits. Reduce the number of
> splits if there are not enough unique candidates.
> This would require modifying findSplitsBins and making sure that the number
> of splits/bins (chosen adaptively) is set correctly elsewhere in the code
> (such as in DecisionTreeMetadata).
