loco rpm automation ?

[tjyang]

Just an idea to create loco.rpm for RHEL base distros. There are a few other similar one. I found this one is most easy(to me).

• Docs: https://crates.io/crates/cargo-generate-rpm
• in loco/loco-cli run following command.
  We see cargo-generate-rpm = "0.13.0" line got added in loco-cli/Cargo.toml

cargo add cargo-generate-rpm

• add following lines into Cargo.toml

[package.metadata.generate-rpm]
assets = [
    { source = "target/release/loco", dest = "/usr/bin/loco", mode = "755" },
]

• Build and test rpm
