1. Move Evaluator to ml.evaluation.
1. Mention larger metric values are better.
1. PipelineModel doc. “compiled” -> “fitted”
1. Hide object PolynomialExpansion.
1. Hide object VectorAssembler.

Closes #6322 from mengxr/SPARK-7535.0 and squashes the following commits:

9e9c7da [Xiangrui Meng] move JavaEvaluator to ml.evaluation as well
e179480 [Xiangrui Meng] move Evaluation to ml.evaluation in PySpark
08ef61f [Xiangrui Meng] update pipieline APIs

This PR makes pipeline stages in Python copyable and hence simplifies some implementations. It also includes the following changes:

1. Rename `paramMap` and `defaultParamMap` to `_paramMap` and `_defaultParamMap`, respectively.
2. Accept a list of param maps in `fit`.
3. Use parent uid and name to identify param.
