Merge rust-bitcoin/rust-bitcoin#6775: build(deps): bump cargo-bins/cargo-binstall from 1.20.0 to 1.20.1
What changed, and why it matters
This is a routine automated update by Dependabot that changes one line in a GitHub Actions workflow. It switches the version of cargo-binstall (a helper tool used during automated testing) from 1.20.0 to 1.20.1. There is no indication this fixes or introduces a security problem in the rust-bitcoin library itself.
No security action required. Treat as routine maintenance. If desired, verify the cargo-binstall v1.20.1 release hash matches the pinned commit 732870f031d2fb36309d0deaf36abcc704a7be65.
