Problem you are trying to solve

When I ran my regular rustup update I got the new and amazing rustup version 1.28.2. Unfortunately, I didn't even know it, because it wasn't included in the summary:

...
info: installing component 'rustfmt'
info: checking for self-update
info: downloading self-update

  stable-aarch64-apple-darwin unchanged - rustc 1.86.0 (05f9846f8 2025-03-31)
   nightly-aarch64-apple-darwin updated - rustc 1.89.0-nightly (dcecb9917 2025-05-09) (from rustc 1.88.0-nightly (e643f59f6 2025-04-07))

info: cleaning up downloads & tmp directories

I had to do a web search to figure out it was updated, and then was able to run rustup self update to see I now had version 1.28.2.

Solution you'd like

I'd like the rustup update to show in the list of things updated, and if it isn't updated, it could just say "rustup unchanged" just like it does for stable in my example output above.
