Feature Request

I think it would be immensely useful for development purposes for it to be possible to add the ability to install from a GitHub release. It doesn't fall under the banner of the git feature because we don't want to actually copy or compile the repository, and the url= functionality in project.toml doesn't work because that doesn't pass the correct GitHub credentials (when required).

Since Github releases ask for compiled binaries, installation files etc., being able to install from these links would be immensely useful when in the development stage (where using a public or private repo is not yet possible).
