v5.0.0 🎉

Breaking changes:

• Support of Node 4 has been dropped #353
• Support of webpack 1 has been dropped #353
• AppCache is now disabled by default (celebrating ServiceWorker release in Safari and Edge), but can be enabled again with AppCache: true or more detailed AppCache options
• ServiceWorker.navigateFallbackURL and ServiceWorker.navigateFallbackForRedirects have been deprecated since 4.9.0 and now are dropped. Use appShell option instead. Also see updated SPA example with appShell option #335
• ServiceWorker.prefetchRequest.credentials is now default to 'same-origin'
• Undocumented "loaders" feature has been removed

Updates

• webpack 4 is supported now 🎉 #353, #357
• Fixture tests has been updated to run against webpack 2-4, and more browser tests has been written
• Added ServiceWorker.updateViaCache option (reflecting the same option on ServiceWorker's register() method)
• Fixed issue with additional caches not being added at all when one of them failed to load, preventing caches from being updated/refetched later
