hi,

https://faraday.io/ loves szip. We use it a lot, having installed it from cargo install szip.

It would be nice if you had a downloadable binary in https://github.com/BurntSushi/rust-snappy/releases!

thanks, Seamus and the Faraday team

Normally I wouldn't this for such a small binary because of the added maintenance burden, but I wanted to figure out how releases and GitHub Actions worked before moving more complex projects to them. So I decided to use szip as my guinea pig.

So, here's szip 1.0.0: https://github.com/BurntSushi/rust-snappy/releases/tag/szip-1.0.0

Do note that I stripped down the dependencies of szip quite a bit, so if you wanted to do a cargo install szip, it should be quicker than before.
