> This feature enables Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) optimization for Logistic 
> Regression based on a Gaussian prior. In practice, this is just implementing 
> a more general form of L2 regularization parameterized by a (multivariate) 
> mean and precisions vectors. 
> _Reference: Bishop, Christopher M. (2006). Pattern Recognition and Machine 
> Learning (section 4.5). Berlin, Heidelberg: Springer-Verlag._
> h2.  Implementation
> * 2 new parameters added to {{LogisticRegression}}: {{priorMean}} and 
> {{priorPrecisions}}.
> * 1 new class ({{PriorRegularization}}) implements the calculations of the 
> value and gradient of the prior regularization term.
> * Prior regularization is enabled when both vectors are provided and 
> {{regParam}} > 0 and {{elasticNetParam}} < 1.
> h2. Tests
> * {{DifferentiableRegularizationSuite}}
> ** {{Prior regularization}}
> * {{LogisticRegressionSuite}}
> ** {{prior precisions should be required when prior mean is set}}
> ** {{prior mean should be required when prior precisions is set}}
> ** {{`regParam` should be positive when using prior regularization}}
> ** {{`elasticNetParam` should be less than 1.0 when using prior 
> regularization}}
> ** {{prior mean and precisions should have equal length}}
> ** {{priors' length should match number of features}}
> ** {{binary logistic regression with prior regularization equivalent to L2}}
> ** {{binary logistic regression with prior regularization equivalent to L2 
> (bis)}}
> ** {{binary logistic regression with prior regularization}}
