Description

Add MQTT v5.0 support to this client.

I'll enumerate what those changes are when I figure out what they are. I plan to begin this work in earnest after I've done something about #138, and I can start #138 after next week.

Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reading the MQTT v5.0 Committee Specification and the linked overview, then compare the required changes with the current client. Done means the client supports the MQTT v5.0 requirements identified during that review.
