Presently x.py displays "There have been changes to x.py since you last updated:" note only once when run normally, but on every invocation when run with --dry-run.
The disparity is not exactly intentonal, but just a historical accident.
It was made to be printed once in #117815 via storing .last-warned-change-id on disk in {config.out}/bootstrap (i.e. build/bootstrap) directory.
But that didn't quite work for --dry-run, since {config.out}/bootsrap points to build/tmp-dry-run/bootstrap which isn't created in dry-run mode, so file creation fails.
This got fixed in #118789 and now --dry-run does not save .last-warned-change-id at all. (Nor does it read it, since it cannot know to read from non-dry-run location)

This PR simply stops displaying the changelog altogether in --dry-run mode.

previous attempt (outdated) This PR takes a different approach, and instead of not-writing the stamp in `--dry-run` mode it instead tries harder to yes-write it, and, specifically, creates `build/tmp-dry-run/bootstrap` directory to do so. If neccessary (i.e. if there are changes newer than the `change-id` stamp of config.toml to warn about). Note that `build/tmp-dry-run/` was *already* being created, so making an extra `boostrap` sub-folder should not meaningfully pollute the build dir.

(Apologies for the, perhaps, excessively wordy PR, I'm new to this)
