More informative diagnotic from `x.py test` attempt atop beta checkout

Make bootstrap be more informative when one does `x.py test` on a beta checkout without other mods.

To be clear, by default running `x.py test` on a checkout of the beta branch
currently fails, and with this change will continue to fail, because `x.py
tests` runs `x.py test src/tools/tidy` which tries to run `rustfmt` and that
will fail because the `rustfmt` binary is pinned to the current nighlty and we
do not attempt to distribute one for the beta builds.

This change gives a better error message than the current message, which is just
"./x.py fmt is not supported on this channel" without providing any hint about
what one might do about that problem.
