[RESOURCE] SN SciGraph Latest Release

We are pleased to announce the third release of SN SciGraph
<https://scigraph.springernature.com/> Linked Open Data. SN SciGraph is
Springer Nature’s Linked Data platform that collates information from
across the research landscape, i.e. the things, documents, people, places
and relations of importance to the science and scholarly domain.

This release includes a complete refactoring of the SN SciGraph data model.
Following up on users feedback, we have simplified it using Schema.org
<https://schema.org/> and JSON-LD <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON-LD>,
so to make it easier to understand and consume the data also for non-linked
data specialists.

This release includes two brand new datasets - Patents and Clinical Trials
linked to Springer Nature publications - which have been made available by
our partner Digital Science <https://www.digital-science.com/>, and in
particular the Dimensions <http://dimensions.ai/> team.

*Highlights:*

   - *New Datasets.* Data about clinical trials and patents connected to
   Springer Nature publications have been added. This data is sourced from
   Dimensions.ai <https://www.dimensions.ai/>.
   - *New Ontology.* Schema.org <https://schema.org/> is now the main model
   used to represent SN SciGraph data.
   - *References data.* Publications data now include references as well (=
   outgoing citations).
   - *Simpler Identifiers.* URIs for SciGraph objects have been
   dramatically simplified, reusing common identifiers whenever possible. In
   particular all articles and chapters use the URI format prefix ('pub.') +
   DOI (eg pub.10.1007/s11199-007-9209-1).
   - *JSON-LD.* JSON-LD <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON-LD> is now the
   primary serialization format used by SN SciGraph.
   - *Downloads.* Data dumps are now managed externally on FigShare
   <https://sn-scigraph.figshare.com/> and are referenceable via DOIs.
   - *Continuous updates.* New publications data is released on a daily
   basis. All the other datasets are refreshed on a monthly basis.
