Just release binaries to github #957

Thanks for creating versioned releases of dep! This will be helpful as changes are introduced to the file format & tool over time. I have a suggest to make them easier to use.

Current process to install a released verison of dep (inside a container or other):

apt-get update
apt-get install -y unzip
curl -fsSL -o dep.zip https://github.com/golang/dep/releases/download/v0.3.0/dep-linux-amd64.zip
unzip dep.zip
rm dep.zip
mv dep /usr/local/bin/dep
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/dep

Instead, if you simply published the binary to github (do not zip it):

curl -fsSL -o /usr/local/bin/dep https://github.com/golang/dep/releases/download/v0.3.0/dep-linux-amd64
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/dep

Many other go projects do this (publish the binaries directly to the github release), it would be awesome if dep can too.
