Description

It would be very handy to be able to have a full verbosity logs reported for scripts execution.
Recently we have had a bug that we weren't able to investigate due to lack of information:
https://github.com/dotnet/install-scripts/issues/466

Research direction

Start by tracing how setup-dotnet invokes the install scripts and review the failure context in install-scripts issue 466. Determine where a verbosity option can be accepted and passed through; done means workflows can request full script logs and the option is covered by the relevant existing validation.
