Prisma: 2.0.0-preview-5 Release

Today, we are issuing the fifth Preview release: 2.0.0-preview-5 (short: preview-5).

In case you wonder where preview-4 is - there was a mistake in our build pipeline which skipped preview-4.

Major changes

In this release, we've focused a lot on making Photon and Lift more stable and ironed out a number of critical and annoying bugs.

For example, you can finally use environment variables in your Prisma schema, apply @default(now()) to DateTime fields or connect to database with credentials that contain special characters.
