documentation update and confusions around

Bug report

What is the current behavior?

Read a documentation about webpack-5 who is really talking about webpack-5.

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce.

Go to webpack-5 official documentation page and look, code is about webpack-4 again. That's confusing new user like me.

What is the expected behavior?

Read the correct webpack-5 documentation. I used webpack-4 (before this day) and from package.json, script to call webpack-5 seems to be different than the one used to call webpack-4 bundler (i don't discuss about the great idea to change the script code to call webpack there... just to inform user how to call new one is the minimum). Can you update the doc please ?

You should clearly understand that users want to read the correct documentation in relation with the version. If not... forget me.

Other relevant information: webpack version: 5
Node.js version: 15 Operating System: archlinux Additional tools: web browser
