[Bug 1871099] [NEW] [deb2snap] No progress information when a snap is being installed

[Iain Lane]

Public bug reported:

Version: 1:20.04.2

In the MR implementing deb2snap & snap2deb handling in update-
manager[0], I made the following comment:

One bit of feedback: I just got 'snap-store' installed thanks to this
change. It took a couple of minutes to download though, and I was a bit
worried that the process had stalled or broken somehow. I think it'd be
reassuring if you could somehow output progress information, e.g. the
amount that's been downloaded. I think this must be possible with snapd-
glib, since gnome-software can do it.

This should be recorded as a bug I think, and ideally worked on.
