For the upcoming release I'd like to provide .deb and .rpm files in addition to the tarballs on the release page, which should make it easier for folks to just dpkg -i ... and have the binary in their PATH and the manual pages in their MANPATH. This adds the metadata for using cargo-deb and cargo-generate-rpm to Cargo.toml.

*Originally created by @ulyssa on 8/15/2024* For the upcoming release I'd like to provide `.deb` and `.rpm` files in addition to the tarballs on the release page, which should make it easier for folks to just `dpkg -i ...` and have the binary in their `PATH` and the manual pages in their `MANPATH`. This adds the metadata for using [cargo-deb](https://crates.io/crates/cargo-deb) and [cargo-generate-rpm](https://crates.io/crates/cargo-generate-rpm) to `Cargo.toml`.
