cargo install command

[Turbo87]

It would be cool if cargo had a cargo install command similar to e.g. npm install --save. That command would then look in the index for the most recent version of the crate, install it, and add the dependency to the Cargo.toml file.

it seems like https://github.com/killercup/cargo-edit and https://github.com/withoutboats/cargo-add implement something similar to my suggestion, however it would be awesome if that was part of cargo itself instead of having to install it as a plugin.
