Bug Description
The update ui had to deliver additional update messages.
Attention from design will be needed as we had to add some additional labels in case of multiple errors:
* if we can't even check if an update is available (like no network connection), we show display the error message where "Checking for update…" was displayed with a "Retry" button.
<https:/
* If we can't get any estimate for the download time from the message, the "About x seconds remaining" become: "No estimate for the download"
<https:/
* The following items are presented in the same spot than the "Download failed:" case:
** If we can't pause a download, the message is:
"Pause failed": as primary message and then the reason delivered by the daemon as a secondary message
<https:/
** If we can't install and reboot, the message is:
"Apply update failed:" as primary message and then the reason delivered by the daemon as a secondary message
<https:/
** If we can't contact the daemon for any reason, those error messages become (depending on the case):
"Can't apply the current update (can't contact service)" when clicking on install & reboot
<https:/
"Can't cancel current request (can't contact service)" when retrying from scratch an update
"Can't pause current request (can't contact service)" when pausing a download
<https:/

it would also be good to specify the UI layout (if an update fails to be applied, should the user be sent back to the list of updates with a "retry" button?) where should the error message be displayed?
