categories A, B and C with corresponding proportion of label 1 as 0.2, 0.6 and 0.4, the categorical
features are ordered as A followed by C followed B or A, B, C. The two split candidates are A \| C, B

when `$2^(M-1)-1$` is greater than the number of bins -- the impurity for each categorical feature value
is used for ordering.
