add Hyperopt.jl as an Optimizer #482

I am wondering why Hyperopt is not included in the optimizers.

Probably this is intentional - I would be very happy about a short explanation why Hyperopt.jl is not applicable in this case
if not, was it overlooked or are there some difficulties?

Someone just has to write the code.

There was an attempt but it didn't make it through https://github.com/SciML/Optimization.jl/pull/124

I'd recommend against spending time including Hyperopt.jl (I'm the author of Hyperopt). The Hyperopt package has grown into more than what it was originally intended to be, and the internals have not been redesigned appropriately to handle all the new use cases. I only use very limited features of Hyperopt myself, and all the code contributed by the community to this package doesn't currently have anyone who wants to maintain it.
