Brief description of your issue

I created .winget file pointing to private store app. This will fail the Store access from winget, because i need to log in to the store.

Error: Apply :: WinGetPackage The configuration unit failed while attempting to test the current system state. An error occurred while searching for packages: CatalogError

My issues: 1) CatalogError: This is pretty cryptic. Why not just say we cannot access the Source if that is the issue. 2) "" Why make me do extra work when winget can tell me: OPTIONS A) See C:\Users\WDAGUtilityAccount\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\DiagOutputDir\WinGet-2024-04-11-09-03-54.698.log for additional details. B) suggest, Re-Run the command with the --Logs and --verbose-logs for additional details. C) Simply tell the user what is wrong so they do not need to look at the log. ![image](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/assets/2146880/3b46623a-c9e6-4df3-bdac-88c121314949) ### Steps to reproduce In SandBox, run the following .winget once you have updated the id to be canary build of a store app that requires permission properties: configurationVersion: 0.2.0 resources: - directives: allowPrerelease: true description: private app resource: Microsoft.WinGet.DSC/WinGetPackage settings: id: source: msstore ### Expected behavior Better error handling. see suggestions ### Actual behavior ![image](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/assets/2146880/733cfe00-dc9c-4475-a939-b1b00c4382b7) ### Environment ```shell C:\Users\WDAGUtilityAccount>winget --info Windows Package Manager v1.7.10861 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation.
