 Review comment:
   If we are talking about `inputCol` and `inputCols`, they are `String` and 
`Array[String]` individually. Other models that support multi-column apply an 
input/output pattern that `inputCol` matches `outputCol` and `inputCols` 
matches `outputCols`. For example, we will check if `outputCol` is set when we 
find `inputCol` is set. `StringIndexer` now follows other models. Making change 
to that like translating any calls that would set `inputCol` to modify 
`inputCols` will require some other changes like input/output check. I'd like 
to address them if it is needed, in a separate issue.
