Release v5.0.0.rc

Given a lot of time has passed since the last v4.x release, and there's
been many changes (including breaking ones) merged to main, let's go
with an "RC" version before doing a final release.

If we don't hear any major issues, I plan to release a final version in
a couple of weeks.
