v5.0.0

* **BREAKING CHANGES**
    * The severity level is now configurable, and defaults to severity "error"
    * The following formatters have change output:
        - msbuildFormatter - default was "warning"; it is now "error"
        - pmdFormatter - default was priority 1; it is now "error" (priority 3). If set to "warning", it will output priority 4
* [enhancement] Enable WARN with new config file format (#629, #345)
    * Valid values for `severity`: "error|warn|warning|none|off"
    * Old style
    * ```{
        "extends": "tslint:latest",
        "rules": {
          "callable-types": true
        }
      }``
    * New style, with `interface-name` generating warnings, and passing options to `max-line-length`
    * ``` {
        "extends": "tslint:latest",
        "rules": {
          "callable-types": true,
          "interface-name": {
            "severity": "warn"
          },
          "max-line-length": {
            "options": 140,
            "severity": "warning"
          }
        }
      }``
