How Has This Been Tested?

If updating or adding a new CLI to arkade get, run:

go build && ./hack/test-tool.sh crc

+ ./arkade get crc --arch arm64 --os darwin --quiet
+ file /home/sav/.arkade/bin/crc
/home/sav/.arkade/bin/crc: xar archive compressed TOC: 5066, SHA-1 checksum
+ rm /home/sav/.arkade/bin/crc
+ echo

+ ./arkade get crc --arch x86_64 --os darwin --quiet
+ file /home/sav/.arkade/bin/crc
/home/sav/.arkade/bin/crc: xar archive compressed TOC: 5066, SHA-1 checksum
+ rm /home/sav/.arkade/bin/crc
+ echo

+ ./arkade get crc --arch x86_64 --os linux --quiet
+ file /home/sav/.arkade/bin/crc

+ rm /home/sav/.arkade/bin/crc
+ echo

+ ./arkade get crc --arch aarch64 --os linux --quiet

+ echo

+ ./arkade get crc --arch x86_64 --os mingw --quiet


Note: arkade ONLY supports downloading .exe binaries but not installer packages (.msi).
Please manually run the installer: /tmp/arkade-3081368978/crc-windows-amd64.msi
Error: stat /tmp/arkade-3081368978/crc.exe: no such file or directory

Running above command works with Linux and Mac.
