Failed install doesn't provide feedback

Project Member Reported by ntfschr@chromium.org, Aug 31 2017

Issue description

I just tried installing a signed AndroidWebview.apk on an unsigned device. Of course, this fails (for the reasons I mentioned in issue 758779).

But the web UI didn't actually tell me the install failed. It'd be great if I got some feedback, so I wasn't using the wrong version without realizing.

This is a little tricky to get right. Running `adb install` in the commandline exits with non-zero upon failure on N & O devices, but it exits with 0 on L devices.
 
Note from talking to Nicolas - we don't look at return codes right now, and this might not even exist in the Typescript implementation in Google3.  May need to reach out to mwills@ for more details on this.
(Also, thanks for this feedback, and the details on what gets returned where!)
