cargo install of cargo-espflash failing to build "cargo" dependency

[mykmelez]

cargo install of cargo-espflash started failing for me this morning due to a build failure in the "cargo" dependency:

> cd cargo-espflash
> cargo install --path .
…
error[E0063]: missing field `rust_version` in initializer of `NewCrate`

I've published version 2.0.1 which includes the fix for this problem.

@jessebraham @mykmelez I have some fear that this issue will reappear: cargo v0.72.0 was yanked not long after it was released!

For reference - it appears that this issue was introduced in rust-lang/cargo#12041 and work to fix it is being tracked in rust-lang/cargo#12354.

Thanks for the update, that's some unfortunate timing 😅 For the time being you can still install using --locked despite the dependency being yanked. I will keep an eye on the situation.
