Issue MATH-1009 was closed as resolved in version 3.3.

The issue raised was about the fact that the PolynomialFitter (now 
PolynomialCurveFitter) does the curve fit with non-linear regression (and 
requires initial guess and number of iterations).

I can’t think of any reason why a polynomial curve fit (with a least squares 
target) should be done this way instead of doing it with a linear method (like 
QR or SVD) and I don’t know of any other math package that does polynomial fits 
this way.  

I’m not a numerical methods expert, so maybe I’m wrong, but it seems that this 
really should be resolved before the release of Math 4.0 (or even 3.6).

Should MATH-1009 be reopened, or should I create a new issue (which will just 
be a copy of 1009 changed to refer to PolynomialCurveFitter).
