[SPARK-18793][SPARK-18794][R] add spark.randomForest/spark.gbt to vignettes

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?

Mention `spark.randomForest` and `spark.gbt` in vignettes. Keep the content minimal since users can type `?spark.randomForest` to see the full doc.

+#### Random Forest
+
+`spark.randomForest` fits a [random forest](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_forest) classification or regression model on a `SparkDataFrame`.
+Users can call `summary` to get a summary of the fitted model, `predict` to make predictions, and `write.ml`/`read.ml` to save/load fitted models.
+
+In the following example, we use the `longley` dataset to train a random forest and make predictions:
+
+```{r, warning=FALSE}
+df <- createDataFrame(longley)
+rfModel <- spark.randomForest(df, Employed ~ ., type = "regression", maxDepth = 2, numTrees = 2)
+summary(rfModel)
+predictions <- predict(rfModel, df)
+```
+
+#### Gradient-Boosted Trees
+
+`spark.gbt` fits a [gradient-boosted tree](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradient_boosting) classification or regression model on a `SparkDataFrame`.
+Users can call `summary` to get a summary of the fitted model, `predict` to make predictions, and `write.ml`/`read.ml` to save/load fitted models.
+
+Similar to the random forest example above, we use the `longley` dataset to train a gradient-boosted tree and make predictions:
+
+```{r, warning=FALSE}
+df <- createDataFrame(longley)
+gbtModel <- spark.gbt(df, Employed ~ ., type = "regression", maxDepth = 2, maxIter = 2)
+summary(gbtModel)
+predictions <- predict(gbtModel, df)
+```
+
 #### Naive Bayes Model
 
 Naive Bayes model assumes independence among the features. `spark.naiveBayes` fits a [Bernoulli naive Bayes model](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naive_Bayes_classifier#Bernoulli_naive_Bayes) against a SparkDataFrame. The data should be all categorical. These models are often used for document classification.
