Right now it just pulls down the nightly tarball directly, which it knows by name. To work with arbitrary release channels it needs to download the manifest (e.g. 'channel-rust-nightly') and pull the correct installer name from it. The artifacts will not always have predictable names, particularly on the stable channel. Add a '--channel=' flag to rustup.sh.

I'll probably do this in the next few days along with the other work I'm doing on the installer.

Are the mechanics for where to find the artifacts documented somewhere? Adding the flag is easy enough, I can finish this up if pointed to where the files live.
