Bump alacritty_terminal version
This change bumps the version of the `alacritty_terminal` crate to force
it out of sync with the Alacritty application. Since it is a library
that will be published on crates.io, it should be following semver
rather than our binary's release version.

While it would be possible to just keep it at 0.5.0, explicitly
disconnecting it from the Alacritty version should give it a clean
starting-off point and prevent unnecessary confusion. Bumping it to
0.10.0 instead of something like 0.6.0 should allow for a nice gap
between the different versions without being too arbitrary. Changing the
version to 0.1.0 is not an option since decreasing semver version would
likely cause a lot of problems.

While it would be possible to further separate the Alacritty terminal
library from the Alacritty terminal emulator, by renaming it from
`alacritty_terminal` to something different, I don't think that is
necessary or a good idea at the moment. Even though the
`alacritty_terminal` library *can* be used for other terminals, its
primary goal is still to support the Alacritty terminal emulator and I
don't see that changing. So making that clear in its name seems like a
good idea. Since there is no plan to maintain this library separately
from Alacritty, but to keep both tied together, the naming should
reflect this.

Please make sure to document all user-facing changes in the CHANGELOG.md file.

If support for a new escape sequence was added, it should be documented in ./docs/escape_support.md.

Since alacritty_terminal's version always tracks the next release, make sure that the version is bumped according to semver when necessary.

Draft PRs are always welcome, though unless otherwise requested PRs will not be reviewed until all required and optional CI steps are successful and they have left the draft stage.
