Just a note that this error message is still occurring when Github has operational issues as has been the case the past few days. This issue was the only way I was able to track down the source of the problem in my build step so thanks @kachkaev !

Description
During a recent GitHub incident our Azure Devops Pipelines were failing with the following message: Yarn package layout unexpected.
This was confusing given that it was not clear that Yarn was fetched from GitHub releases. Ironically, when I googled for "yarn package layout unexpected", the only result was the source of this repo, which was.... returning 500 😁
Expected behavior
I would expect a different error message, which would make it clear that a specified Yarn release failed to download because of a remote server error. Perhaps, it could even include links to https://www.githubstatus.com and https://twitter.com/githubstatus?
Reproduction
It's hard to break GitHub on demand, but it may be possible to reproduce the error in tests by replacing a real GitHub releases URL with https://httpstat.us/500.
