Well run already runs the binary, so you can just use that `dub 
run myprog -- args`.
Anything that installs binaries to some common `.dub/bin` path 
will have to deal with colliding binaries, different versions of 
packages, and w/ shared libraries in the package folders or 
somewhere else.
If you figured out all of this, here is the install command
