Download link can be automatic #146

If there are tag releases on github there are links that point to to each release zip or tar.gz file. Like here:

https://github.com/jcubic/jquery.terminal/releases

So plugin site can fetch them automaticaly. I just found those links now, but in my plugin all link point to master branch so you can only download lastest version. And there is no way to change that.

The default behavior, as documented in http://plugins.jquery.com/docs/package-manifest/#field-download is to have each download link point directly to the tag download file, not master. You've explicitly overridden that by specifying the master download link.
