### Issue type

Bug report

### Description

At the end of SDK install or runtime install commands, `preview` dotnetup should check if there's an updated version of `dotnetup` and recommend the customer update with `dotnetup self update` when it is available. This is a stop gap and feedback mechanism to see if folks want `dotnetup` to update itself in these situations instead or if this approach is preferred. Messages might be dropped or removed depending on cadence.
