[mlpack] Particle swarm optimization for GSOC-19

[Marcus Edel]

Hello Sang,

welcome, you are right ideally we can come up with an implementation that
supports both, but if we can't e.g. if we are going to implement a PSO variant
that only works on one there is no need to merge both approaches.

I hope anyything I said makes sense, let me know if I should clarify anything.

Thanks,
Marcus
