Mention built-in strip functionality in Cargo?

This PR will soon land and become stabilized making it possible to have Cargo automatically strip binaries natively. It may be worth pointing users to this:

rust-lang/cargo#10088

Thanks for reaching me, and please accept my apologies for this late reply. These past weeks have been exhausting personally and professionally. Would you mind doing a PR? Also, so you think that this new cargo feature will require me to deprecate this project? Thanks

@guedou The new functionality can be seen here

johnthagen/min-sized-rust#34

It will only be available in 1.59+ so for a time I could see users still wanting to use cargo-strip. I think long term it could probably be deprecated though.

I would say we wait for Rust 1.59 to be released, and then we could mention it in the README as there will be a link to stable docs available that has it.

It looks like that it is time to update the README!

@johnthagen what do you think of the following PR #13 ?
