v5.0.0-RC1

This is the first release candidate of V5, a near-complete rewrite of the Laravel-Elasticsearch package. This update delivers a more seamless integration with Laravel’s Models, Eloquent, and Query Builders while providing greater access to Elasticsearch’s advanced features.

V5 introduces significant breaking changes, major upgrades, and new functionality. A full breakdown will be available in the updated documentation upon the final release.

The current RC is compatible with Laravel 10 and 11, while the final 5.0.0 release will support Laravel 12 as well.

Special thanks to @use-the-fork for initiating this rebuild and laying the groundwork (and then some) for this major release.
