ArrayV 5.0

ArrayV 5.0 is finally here! This update has been a really long time in coming, but it's here now. The biggest thing that was specifically done for this update is a move from the outdated Ant build tool, to the modern Maven build tool! This will let us bring more features that were previously impossible to do well to ArrayV.
