Descrizione

forc should should notify users when their active toolchain is out of date. E.g. if they use forc commands on the beta-4 toolchain, but there are new patch releases available it could have some warning message that they are on an out of date version. Same for the LSP - perhaps we could propagate this message in the editor somehow.

A single console message would be good, similar to what the github cli does when you use it and there is a new update you havent applied yet:

A new release of gh is available: 2.32.1 → 2.38.0
To upgrade, run: brew upgrade gh
https://github.com/cli/cli/releases/tag/v2.38.0

Direzione di ricerca
Investigate how `forc` currently handles versioning and implement a check comparing the active toolchain version to the latest release. Look at the `forc util` crate for existing version related logic. Reference the GitHub CLI's update notification pattern for UI inspiration. The LSP integration may require propagating a message from the toolchain check to the editor. Maintainers' comment on the issue may provide additional guidance.
