Jaybird 5.0.1

The following has been fixed since Jaybird 5.0.0:

Fixed: Executing DML with a RETURNING clause containing a blob column would return the blob-id instead of the blob value (jaybird#728)
Fixed: CallableStatement.getString and CallableStatement.getObject would incorrectly trim string values (jaybird#729)
Fixed: ResultSetMetaData.getPrecision(int) of a connectionless result set could throw a NullPointerException if the column was of type FLOAT or DOUBLE PRECISION (jaybird#730)

Jaybird 5 supports Firebird 2.5 and higher, on Java 8, 11, 17 and 19 (support for Java 11 and higher using the Java 11 version of the driver).
