v0.5.0

PoP Miners

This release contains a performance improvement for popmd, which should help reduce issues when mining L2 keystones. An expensive RPC call to get the balance of the miner, which was mostly redundant, was removed from the keystone mining process.

This should help reduce the load on BFG and Electrs, making it more likely for a PoP Miners to be able to mine keystones.
