> It would be nice to be able to use RF and GBT for feature transformation:
>  First fit an ensemble of trees (like RF, GBT or other TreeEnsambleModels) on 
> the training set. Then each leaf of each tree in the ensemble is assigned a 
> fixed arbitrary feature index in a new feature space. These leaf indices are 
> then encoded in a one-hot fashion.
> This method was first introduced by 
> facebook([http://www.herbrich.me/papers/adclicksfacebook.pdf]), and is 
> implemented in famous libraries:
> sklearn   
> [apply|[http://scikit-learn.org/stable/auto_examples/ensemble/plot_feature_transformation.html#example-ensemble-plot-feature-transformation-py]]
> xgboost  
> [predict_leaf_index|[https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/blob/master/demo/guide-python/predict_leaf_indices.py]]
> lightgbm 
> [predict_leaf_index|https://lightgbm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Parameters.html#predict_leaf_index]
> catboost 
> [calc_leaf_index|https://github.com/catboost/tutorials/tree/master/leaf_indexes_calculation]

> Refering to the design of above impls, I propose following api:
> val model1 : DecisionTreeClassificationModel= ...
> model1.setLeafCol("leaves")
>  model1.transform(df)
>  
> val model2 : GBTClassificationModel = ...
> model2.getLeafCol
>  model2.transform(df)
>  
>  The detailed design doc:
