Improve installer debugging and enhance E2E test diagnostics

- Added rich error reporting to install_repos() for clearer installer failure context
  (repository identifier, repo directory, installer name, exit code).
- Updated E2E test 'install_all_shallow' to show additional diagnostics,
  including Nix profile dumps and contextual SystemExit handling.
- Removed outdated/deactivated test file.
- New test now mirrors the robust debugging flow of the pkgmgr-only test.
