Use buildpacks to build things

$ mason build /tmp/app
* detecting buildpack... done
  = name: Ruby
  = url: https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-ruby.git
* compiling:
... COMPILE OUTPUT
* packaging... done
  = type: dir
  = file: /tmp/mason.out

$ mason build /tmp/app -t dir -o /tmp/compiledapp
* detecting buildpack... done

$ mason stacks:create lucid64
* creating stack lucid64... done

$ mason stacks:up lucid64
* booting stack lucid64 (this may take a while)... done

$ mason:build /tmp/app -t tgz -o /tmp/compiled.tgz -s lucid64
