Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Manually checking for updates of each and every installed tool is painful and time-consuming.
So, need an option to check and apply the updates of the installed tools in a single command similar to that of checking and applying the updates of the installed templates using the below commands.
dotnet new --update-check and dotnet new --update-apply
Describe the solution you'd like
Following the same pattern dotnet tool --update-check and dotnet tool --update-apply to install the (latest) version available, if any. Support for --global option is also to be considered here.
At least the update check should be supported at the earliest.
Additional context
Hope the feature requested is self-descriptive and this saves the precious time of redundant work.

We should pattern this after dotnet list package in terms of the options that are accepted, and this should be a natural extension of the already-existing dotnet tool list and dotnet tool update commands.
The syntax should be:
dotnet tool list [--outdated] [--global]
dotnet tool update [--outdated] [--global]
meaning that
dotnet tool list should learn the --outdated option to only return tools with newer versions available
dotnet tool update should learn the --outdated option to update all tools with newer versions
both options should also learn the --prerelease option to allow updating/comparing against prerelease versions
all of this should be done taking listed/unlisted versions into account - bulk updating should not accept resolve to/accept unlisted tool versions.
The team doesn't have this on their radar for now, but we of course would love to work with interested community members to make this a reality.
