Make `cargo run` always available for binaries
Previously, items for `cargo test` and `cargo check` would appear as in the `Select Runnable` quick pick that appears when running `rust-analyzer: Run`, but `run` would only appear as a runnable if a `main`` function was selected in the editor. This change adds `cargo run` as an always available runnable command for binary packages. This makes it easier to develop cli / tui applications, as now users can run application from anywhere in their codebase.
