chore(release): bump version to 0.5.0

Settings UX polish release. Twelve organic settings tabs collapsed
into eight themed ones, theme/font controls moved to Appearance,
About and Changelog merged into Information. Configuration migrates
from v9 to v10 as a wipe with a backup file written next to the live
config; chat history and tabs survive.

**Hellion Chat 0.5.0 — Settings UX polish**
The settings window has been pulled apart and rebuilt around eight
themed tabs instead of the twelve organic ones it grew into.
Settings now sit where they belong and the wall-of-text descriptions
have been replaced with hover help markers across every section.
What changed in this release:
- Twelve tabs collapsed into eight: General, Appearance, Window,
Chat, Tabs, Privacy, Database and Information
- Theme and font controls moved out of the Privacy tab into
Appearance where they belong
- Auto-Tell-Tabs settings, message preview and emote controls now
live under one Chat tab with collapsible sections
- About and Changelog merged into a single Information tab
- Disabled settings keep their tooltip help marker visible so you
can still read why an option is greyed out
- Section headings start collapsed by default, the same pattern
used for the Auto-Tell-Tabs preload section in 0.4.0
Configuration version bumps from 9 to 10 as a wipe migration. The
old config file is copied to HellionChat.json.pre-v10-backup before
the new defaults are written, so you can restore your previous
setup by hand if anything looks off. A one-shot notification on
first start explains the reset.
No changes to message storage, retention sweep, the privacy filter
or the export pipeline. Tabs and chat history are untouched by the
migration.
Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
**Hellion Chat 0.4.0 — Auto-Tell-Tabs**
Auto-Tell-Tabs lets you turn each /tell into a session-only tab
