Support cargo install #11

Open arcnmx opened 8 years ago

Due to the dependency on the clippy plugin, cargo-clippy does not work as a standalone binary. cargo install does not support external resources and so cannot be used as-is to install cargo-clippy.

One potential approach would be to embed clippy into the cargo-clippy binary and extract it to a temporary directory when it's needed.
