This adds release notes for ML.NET 0.3

@GalOshri GalOshri requested review from shauheen, asthana86 and glebuk July 2, 2018 22:26
* Added Field-Aware Factorization Machines (FFM) as a learner for binary classification (#383)

* FFM is useful for various large sparse datasets, especially in areas such as recommendations and click prediction. It has been used to win various click prediction competitions such as the [Criteo Display Advertising Challenge on Kaggle](https://www.kaggle.com/c/criteo-display-ad-challenge). You can learn more about the winning solution [here](https://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~r01922136/kaggle-2014-criteo.pdf).
* FFM is a streaming learner so it does not require the entire dataset to fit in memory and can be used as an online learner.

The referenced Kaggle competition seems a bit dated. Do we have any benchmarks showing its current utility vs. other methods?

Addressed the repetition in next iteration. I am not aware of a more recent published benchmark.

* [OVA](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiclass_classification#One-vs.-rest) (sometimes known as One-Versus-Rest) is an approach to using binary classifiers in multiclass classification problems.
* While some binary classification learners in ML.NET natively support multiclass classification (e.g. Logistic Regression), there are others that do not (e.g. Averaged Perceptron). OVA enables using the latter group for multiclass classification as well.

* Enabled exporting ML.NET models to the [ONNX](https://onnx.ai/) format (#248)
