## What changes were proposed in this pull request? This patch adds a user guide section for generalized linear regression and includes the examples from [#12754](https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/12754). ## How was this patch tested? Documentation only, no tests required. ## Approach In general, it is a bit unclear what level of detail ought to be included in the user guide since there is a lot of variability within the current user guide. I tried to give a fairly brief mathematical introduction to GLMs, and cover what types of problems they could be used for. Additionally, I included a brief blurb on the IRLS solver. The input/output columns are given in a table as is found elsewhere in the docs (though, again, these appear rather intermittently in the current docs), as well as a table providing the supported families and their link functions. Author: sethah <seth.hendrickson16@gmail.com> Closes #13139 from sethah/SPARK-15186.
