New 5.0.0-rc1 release

Hi everyone. New version 5.0.0-rc1 of Minimum Profit has been released.
The 5.x branch has been renamed as the new 'stable' release, and the old
3.x one is now called the 'classic' branch.

The changes are:

 * New support for translating key sequences into MP keycodes, mainly
   for redefining ANSI sequences not supported by current terminfo /
   termcap. For example, if your terminal sends the ANSI sequence [6;5~
   whenever you press Ctrl+page down, you can add to your config file
   the following line:

	mp.add_keyseq("[6;5~", 'ctrl-page-down');

 * A new 'system_command' action, to pipe from and to system commands
   (Closed bug #1120).
 * A new 'word_count' action, to count the number of lines and words
   in a document (or in the selected block).
 * Incorrect word wrapping has been fixed (Closed bug #1137).
 * Search and replace expand backslashed characters like \n and \t
   (Closed bug #1214).
 * New timer functionality has been added; a user function can be called
   each time a specified period of milliseconds have elapsed. If, for
   example, you want to print a string on standard output each two
   seconds, you can run

	mp.timer(2000, sub { print("Hi, world!\n"); });
