Release v5.0.0

What's new?

Updated to use new go-playground/pkg provides that stack and frame information that

Release 4.0.0

What's new?

• Rewrote stack frame logic from scratch and now uses runtime.CallerFrames
• Added the ability for error helper to be registered via import alone.
• Updated error string logic for better performance

NOTE:
This is a breaking change for 2 reasons only if neither applies to you it is backward compatible.

1. If you're using the Stack() or StackLevel(...) functions the levels have changed.
2. Update to using Go modules makes it compatible with Go 1.11+
