rename config.toml to bootstrap.toml #126875

Closed

Description

@jyn514

cargo and bootstrap use the same name for their configuration file. this is confusing. we might want to rename this file so it's easier to understand what's going on.

this will also make it easier to write .gitignore style includes and excludes without mixing up the two types of configs.

    If we do that, if bootstrap.toml don't exist we should fallback to config.toml so we don't break the downstreams.
