v0.2.0

Version 0.2.0 release.

Time for another release. Here are the major changes and improvements.

1. Segmentation Added

The semantic segmentation system has finally been added. It has its own msg type. The package is located in here

2. Autopilot

Combined steering and throttle prediction into one system. (to streamline computing). The new system can be found here

3. Simulation

Updated the package after the CARLA 0.9.2 release. Now can run the system with no issues.

4. Other small changes, mostly documentation improvements

v0.1.2

0.1.2 Release Summary
