Although we write rpm logs to dnf5.log, we should directly print the errors to the terminal (as dnf4 do).

For example (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2312906):

Prepare the environment:

# mkdir -p /tmp/IR/mnt
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/IR-loop bs=1024 count=1000
# losetup /dev/loop0 /tmp/IR-loop
# mkfs -t ext4 -v /dev/loop0
# mount -t ext4 -o ro /dev/loop0 /tmp/IR/mnt/

With dnf4 the root cause (readonly filesystem) is clearly visible:

# dnf4 install filesystem --installroot=/tmp/IR --repo=fedora
