    [SPARK-4581][MLlib] Refactorize StandardScaler to improve the 
transformation performance

    The following optimizations are done to improve the StandardScaler model 
    transformation performance.
    
    1) Covert Breeze dense vector to primitive vector to reduce the overhead.
    2) Since mean can be potentially a sparse vector, we explicitly convert it 
to dense primitive vector.
    3) Have a local reference to `shift` and `factor` array so JVM can locate 
the value with one operation call.
    4) In pattern matching part, we use the mllib SparseVector/DenseVector 
instead of breeze's vector to 
    make the codebase cleaner.
    
    Benchmark with mnist8m dataset:
    
    Before,
    DenseVector withMean and withStd: 50.97secs
    DenseVector withMean and withoutStd: 42.11secs
    DenseVector withoutMean and withStd: 8.75secs
    SparseVector withoutMean and withStd: 5.437
    
    With this PR,
    DenseVector withMean and withStd: 5.76secs
    DenseVector withMean and withoutStd: 5.28secs
    DenseVector withoutMean and withStd: 5.30secs
    SparseVector withoutMean and withStd: 1.27
