At long last - Dancer2 2.0.0!

I apologize it took longer than expected - open source doesn't always move as fast as we'd like it to - but there's a lot of great things in this release that make it worth the wait.

Head on over to Perl.com to check out the details. Here's a quick summary of what's new:

- New documentation, courtesy of a grant from the Perl and Raku Foundation
- Extendable config system, thanks to Mikko Koivunalho
- Removed Dancer2::Template::Simple from core Dancer2
- Retired our fork of Template::Tiny, and integrated our changes into the core distribution (thanks, @ether!)
- Configurable data/secrets censoring with Data::Censor
- Logging of hooks as they are executed
- New hook: on_hook_exception
- CLI improvements:
    - Changes that allow for scaffolding of other things (plugins, etc.) in future Dancer2 releases
    - Scaffolding of tutorial app

We're really excited for this release, and we hope you are too!

Keep Dancing!
Jason/CromeDome and the Dancer Core Team
