Make dart booster part of gbtree #12031

@RAMitchell

Description

@RAMitchell

We are deprecating "booster=gblinear" (#12023 ) , that leaves only "gbtree" and "dart". Internally dart is really just a thin skin over gbtree that modifies tree weights. We can instead make dart just a parameter of gbtree.

This reduces complexity around GBTree/Learner and supports future refactoring.

There are risks however around backwards compatibility and breaking changes, so care is required.
