Release preparation for the v0.5.0-rc.1 pre-release.

  • everything under [Unreleased] moves into a dated [0.5.0] section in both changelogs, and the [Unreleased] header stays where it is
  • VERSION.txt goes 0.4.0 -> 0.5.0
  • the release page opens with a short summary of what the version is about

The tag will be v0.5.0-rc.1. Its base has to equal VERSION.txt, and the suffix is what makes it publish as a pre-release.

Why a release candidate first: the SBOM attestation step has never run. It only executes on a real tag, so this walks the whole path - build, smoke of the built executable, archive, checksums, SBOM, attestation, release - without claiming the version is final. It also gives anyone who wants it something to download.

Verified before the commit: python -m pytest tests 1119 passed, smoke_gui.py OK, the built --version reports 0.5.0, and tools/release_notes.py 0.5.0 extracts exactly the section that will become the release body.

- move everything under [Unreleased] into a dated [0.5.0] section in both
  changelogs, leaving the [Unreleased] header in place
- VERSION.txt 0.4.0 -> 0.5.0, at the owner's instruction
- add the short summary the release page opens with

The tag for this one is v0.5.0-rc.1, a pre-release: the base has to equal
VERSION.txt, and the suffix is what makes GitHub mark it as such.
