Description

Not supported by cargo-dist right now, but I think it would suffice to have a buildomat script that does a cargo install cargo-dist and then a cargo dist build. The trick is going to be coordinating with github actions on the action that creates and finalizes the release.

Start by examining the existing buildomat scripts and the GitHub Actions action that creates and finalizes releases. Test the proposed cargo install cargo-dist and cargo dist build flow for illumos, then verify that the resulting binaries are included in a correctly finalized release.
