5.0.0

The TChat core has been largely rewritten to more closely follow a Kahn-style topological sorting algorithm. The previous module handling system had issues, particularly when unloading modules in reverse order, which could potentially lead to serious problems in the future.

As a result, module management has been almost completely redesigned in this release. We strongly recommend updating to this version to benefit from the new and more reliable modular core system.
