Summary of the new feature / enhancement

Windows 11 24H2
PowerShell x64 v7.4.6
Microsoft.PowerShell.PSResourceGet v1.0.6

PS > Install-PSresource -Repository 'PSGallery' -TrustRepository -Scope 'CurrentUser' -Name 'Az.Accounts' -Version '99.98.97'

Install-PSResource: Package(s) 'Az.Accounts' could not be installed from repository 'PSGallery'.

PS >

It'd be great is PSResourceGet to output the actual reason for why Az.Accounts v99.98.97 could not be installed: That this version was not found in the given repository.

Find-PSResource returns this information, Save-PSResource and Install-PSResource should too.

PS > Find-PSResource -Repository 'PSGallery' -Name 'Az.Accounts' -Version '99.98.97'

Find-PSResource: Package with name 'Az.Accounts', version '99.98.97' could not be found in repository 'PSGallery'.
