[SPARK-17137][ML][WIP] Compress logistic regression coefficients ## What changes were proposed in this pull request? Use the new `compressed` method on matrices to store the logistic regression coefficients as sparse or dense - whichever is requires less memory. Marked as WIP so we can add some performance test results. Basically, we should see if prediction is slower because of using a sparse matrix over a dense one. This can happen since sparse matrices do not use native BLAS operations when computing the margins. ## How was this patch tested? Unit tests added.
