Provide a task to generate a jar for all the dependencies

In other words, the source code for the current project would not be included in the jar.

Spark (https://github.com/mesos/spark) overrides a bunch of methods in sbt-assembly for sbt 0.7.x in order to achieve this, but it's not as easy to do the same in sbt-assembly for sbt 0.10.x. In any case, it's useful because the dependencies don't change as often as the code for the project and time is saved building the deployment jars.

Now you can either call

> assembly:package-dependency

or,

publishArtifact in (Assembly, packageScala) := false

publishArtifact in (Assembly, packageBin) := false

Very cool, thanks!
