Re: [apache/incubator-mxnet] [RFC] A faster version of Gamma sampling on GPU. (#15928)

@ptrendx @yzhliu 
I will create a PR for `np.random.gamma` implemented using the method I proposed before the end of the week, as I need to proceed to implement more distribution samplers, in which the gamma sampler serves as a necessity.
Refactoring  `nd.random` may be left for further discussion. 
--------------------------------------

(P.S. Personally speaking, I think performance is not the only problem in `nd.random`, the poor support for broadcasting parameters and shapes may bring trouble to heavy users of the random sampling module. )
