This decreases the packaged size to less than half:

# of files uncompressed compressed
before 35 355.5KiB 82.9KiB
with package.include 15 (42.9%) 122.9KiB (34.6%) 30.1KiB (36.3%)
with tests¹ 20 (57.1%) 166.5KiB (46.9%) 37.4KiB (45.1%)

And beyond that allows easier dependency reviews (though that is in this
case much less important since everything rust-lang is likely trusted
anyways)

This now includes (output from cargo package --list):

.cargo_vcs_info.json
Cargo.lock
Cargo.toml
Cargo.toml.orig
LICENSE.txt
Readme.md
src/alignment.rs
src/archive.rs
src/archive_writer.rs
src/coff.rs
src/coff_import_file.rs
src/lib.rs
src/mangler.rs
src/math_extras.rs
src/object_reader.rs

¹ Using the version below (which includes tests as well):

include = ["/src", "/tests", "/LICENSE.txt", "/Readme.md"]

The additionally included files would be:

tests/common.rs
tests/import_library.def
tests/import_library.rs
tests/multiple_objects.rs
tests/round_trip.rs

…t necessary for building
