Updating to just call here, because Estimator will call self.input_feature_names = list(X.columns) but since we've changed the feature names in _encode_categories (since LGBM isn't compatible with weird names), this would override the original names.

Similar to LGBM, updating to just call implementation, because Estimator will call self.input_feature_names = list(X.columns) but since we've changed the feature names in _encode_categories (since XGBoost isn't compatible with weird names), this would override the original names.

predictions = clf.predict(X).to_series()
assert len(predictions) == len(y)
assert not np.isnan(predictions).all()
assert (clf.input_feature_names == col_names)

Rather than create a whole new test, tacking it on here, where we test passing weird names to estimators :d

I like this PR. I like moving the functionality up into the parent class. I think the convert X/y to woodwork can be moved out and reused a little bit more. I submitted a PR to your PR, check it out and let me know if that works. If not, no big deal.
