Bump version to 5.0.0-beta-0

Node 16 will reach EOL no later than a few months after Jasmine 5 is
released. Experience with Node 12 and Node 14 has shown that our
dependencies, especially dev dependencies, move on from past-EOL Node
versions fairly quickly. That can make it difficult to continue supporting
them. Since long term support for past EOL Node versions is a non-goal and
many users expect that Node versions will only be dropped in major
releases, it's better to drop it in 5.0.

 For evergreen browsers, each version of Jasmine is tested against the version of the browser that is available to us
 at the time of release. Other browsers, as well as older & newer versions of some supported browsers, are likely to work.
