Unrolled build for rust-lang#125911

Rollup merge of rust-lang#125911 - onur-ozkan:wipe-broken-cache, r=albertlarsan68

delete bootstrap build before switching to bumped rustc

Technically, wiping bootstrap builds can increase the build time. But in practice, trying to manually resolve post-bump issues and even accidentally removing the entire build directory will result in a much greater loss of time. After all, the bootstrap build process is not a particularly lengthy operation.
