I am not sure if DenseMatrix-backed is better default behavior for
`toBlockMatrix`. Actually the rows in `IndexedRowMatrix` can be sparse or
dense. Choose which one, SparkMatrix-backed or DenseMartix-backed, is totally
depending on the use case.
Looks like `toBlockMatrixDense` is already a non-small function. Merging it
with current `toBlockMatrix` might not a good idea. I'd keep it as it's now.
