Rollup merge of #142672 - Kobzol:bootstrap-tool-clarification, r=jieyouxu 

Clarify bootstrap tools description

The existence of `stage0-bootstrap-tools` suggests the possiblity of `stage1/N-bootstrap-tools`, but that's not really a thing. Also it doesn't fit the new bootstrap model, where `stageN` essentially means that it was built with a `stageN-1` compiler (except for std).
