What problem does this PR solve?
Sometimes we want to prepare binaries but do not run them. For example, we may want to prepare the binaries in a Docker build step, so that when image is used later (like in CI) there will be no repeated downloads.
What is changed and how it works?
This PR introduce --dry-run exactly for this kind of purpose.
When playground is called with --dry-run, everything will be as usual except that no instance will be run actually, and TiUP playground will stop immediately after everything is prepared.
