This will default to the existing behavior: using the name of the currently running executable.

I don't write much Go, so hopefully I didn't do things too terribly 😬

Fixes #42

The changes in here and teardownTestBinary feel a bit hacky. An alternative I considered was using a new repo (i.e rhysd-test/test-release-different-name) which would have contained an archive with a differently named binary, and thus we could leave these two methods here as-is.

Do you have a preference @rhysd ?

FWIW, this is merged in our fork (rainforestapp/go-github-selfupdate) and used by our CLI (see PR implementing it here: https://github.com/rainforestapp/rainforest-cli/pull/413/files), so I can confirm this works in the real world 😅

Yes. This repo seems to be no longer maintained. I will move to use yours @magni-
