Description

cargo-binstall's defaults support a number of filename patterns that include a version number: https://github.com/cargo-bins/cargo-binstall/blob/main/SUPPORT.md#defaults

It would be nice if cargo-dist could be configured to generate archives with such names to make the filenames unique even without the full URL.

Research direction

Start with the cargo-dist archive naming and configuration paths, then compare the filename patterns described in SUPPORT.md. Determine how a version-containing archive name could be configured, and verify that generated archives use the configured pattern without requiring the full URL.
