Add --single-file option to app cast generator

 * `-e`/`--ext`: When looking for files to add to the app cast, use the given extension(s) when looking for files. Defaults to `exe`. Example use: `-e exe,msi`
 * `-b`/`--binaries`: File path to directory that should be searched through when looking for files to add to the app cast. Defaults to `.`. Example use: `-b my/build/directory`
 * `-r`/`--search-binary-subdirectories`: True to search the binary directory recursively for binaries; false to only search the top directory. Defaults to `false`. Example use: `-r`.
+* `--single-file`: Single file to add to app cast - if set, `--binaries`, `--ext`, etc. are all ignored. Helpful to use if your output file has no extension (e.g. is a unix executable). Example use: `--single-file path/to/my/file`
 * `-f`/`--file-extract-version`: Whether or not to extract the version of the file from the file's name rather than the file (e.g. dll) itself. Defaults to `false`. Use when your files that will be downloaded by NetSparkleUpdater will have the version number in the file name, e.g. "My App 1.3.2-alpha1.exe". Note that this only searches the last four directory items/folders. Example use: `-f true`
 * `--file-version`: Use to set the version for a binary going into an app cast. Note that this version can only be set once, so when generating an app cast, make sure you either: A) have only one binary in your app cast | B) Utilize the `--reparse-existing` parameter so that old items get picked up. If the generator finds 2 binaries without any known version and `--file-version` is set, then an error will be emitted. Example use: `--file-version 1.3.2`
 * `-o`/`--os`: Operating system that the app cast items belong to. String must include one of the following: `windows`, `mac`, `linux`. Defaults to `windows`. Example use: `-o macos-arm64`; `-o windows-x64`
