5.0.0-beta.1

The primary focus of this version is rework on the mouse/touch handling. Most of this is now crossplatform code, making differences in behavior between platforms less likely.

Another important improvement is the LoggingWidget. When in debug mode logging will be written in the map which will make finding bugs (in our code and in user code) a lot faster.

There are breaking changes. They should be mentioned here (but this is currently from complete): https://mapsui.com/v5/documentation/v5.0-upgrade-guide.html
