[SPARK-16426][MLlib] Fixed bug that caused NaNs in IsotonicRegression
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Fixed a bug that caused `NaN`s in `IsotonicRegression`. The problem occurs
when training rows with the same feature value but different labels end up on
different partitions. This patch changes a `sortBy` call to a
`partitionBy(RangePartitioner)` followed by a `mapPartitions(sortBy)` in order
to ensure that all rows with the same feature value end up on the same
partition.
## How was this patch tested?
Added a unit test.
