linux-firewire-utils version 0.5.0 release

You can download the new release from the following URL:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/ieee1394/linux-firewire-utils.git/tag/?h=v0.5.0

This marks the first release since the project was hosted at
git.kernel.org[1]. In this release, crpp tool has been removed due to
Python 2 and license issues. Instead, a new tool called
config-rom-pretty-printer has been added as an alternate. This tool is
implemented in C language and closely resembles the output of the original
tool, capturing approximately 80% of its functionality. However some
legacy functions, such as the firecontrol parser, have been dropped.

The original tool is maintained by Clemens Ladisch and hosted on
github.com[2]. However there has been no activity on the repository in
recent years[3]. As a result, the project was forked to git.kernel.org and
is now maintained by Takashi Sakamoto.

I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for Clemens
Ladisch's work on the original tool. I am delighted to be able to release
an updated version after 8 years of silence.
