Prep for v1.3.0

[odow]

There's an open question whether this should be v1.2.2 or v1.3.0 (the new feature is adding slicing to SparseAxisArray). It feels like a minor enough addition that we can just keep v1.2.2 since this is mainly bug fixes and maintenance.

@blegat / @mlubin thoughts on what constitutes a minor release?

[blegat]

Strictly speaking, it's a new feature and not a bug fix so it should be a minor release but we can make an exception

[mlubin]

Semver is pretty clear:

Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:

MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes
MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards compatible manner
PATCH version when you make backwards compatible bug fixes

Why not follow it?
