minor: To have consistency across different languages is not the only
purpose to add this method. Using easier types is also more user-friendly. I
would suggest removing `, for consistency with Python API` and add `We
recommend using trainClassifier and trainRegressor` in the doc of the previous
`train` method that takes `Algo` and `Impurtiy`.
