herbstluftwm 0.5.0 release

Hi,

herbstluftwm entered a stable state, there weren't many new features in
the last weeks but many bug fixes. So now -- while travelling home from
the 29C3 by train -- it's time to release version 0.5.0. The release
again took 4 months and there are some new contributors. Thanks to all
patch submitters and those who reported bugs!

For a list of features see the NEWS file in the repository or online[1]
or look at the shortlog below.

Note to users
-------------
The command add_monitor behaves different and the setting
focus_follows_shift has been removed. The exit code of many commands
were changed. See the MIGRATION file for more details.

Note to maintainers
-------------------
The build system hasn't changed since 0.4.1. The new tarball can be
found here[2].

Regards,
Thorsten
