I agree that Demo is probably the way to go for 5man content. Demo is the strongest AoE spec and has good cooldowns for quick burst on bosses.
The Felguard glyph pays off for AoE so I'd recommend that.
You're reforging to Mastery which is fine but probably a more effective strategy in raiding than 5mans - at least, that's the case the way you're playing currently. If you move to using Meta as often as possible then you increase the amount of time spent in Meta form and increase the value of Mastery. The result is that I would suggest you either play the same but reforge to Haste or reforge the same but change up your cooldown use.
The best time to use Demon Soul is during with Metamorphosis so if you move to using Meta on cooldown it would probably be worth combining those in a macro and removing Demon Soul from Immolate.
Make sure you use Felstorm as often as possible. It can be macro'd into other abilities to ensure this happens but personally I put it on a separate button so I can be sure to trigger it for the greatest effect.
Generally I would say that cooldowns like Meta are powerful and important. To get the most out of Demo you need to be using them a lot but macroing them to be used literally 'as soon as they come off cooldown' can easily waste them in 5mans when individual fights can be short.
The upshot is that if you really want to hone your 5man skills you'll want to trigger these things manually and choose the fights that warrant the extra power. You'll make a few mistakes at first but before long you'll have a cooldown plan for each dungeon (playing Demo through several ZA speed runs, I now know exactly when to use every spell for the maximum benefit).
Best of luck with it.
