Changelog for Crate multiboot2-header

• Documentation improvements

v0.5.0 (2024-05-20)

This release contains a major refactoring of the internals, guaranteeing even more sanity checks for correct behaviour and lack of UB. In this release, the Builder was rewritten and lots of corresponding UB in certain corer-cases removed. Further, the builder's API was streamlined.

If you are interested in the internals of the major refactorings recently taken place, please head to the documentation of multiboot2-common.
