Gives information about what is being updated, downloaded, etc. Else the updater is quite silent and it's hard to tell what's going on and when it will complete.
Example with the `--verbose` flag:
```
% softwareupdate --all --install --force --verbose

This feature is documented via `--help`; i.e.:
```
% softwareupdate --help
usage: softwareupdate <cmd> [<args> ...]
** Manage Updates:
-l | --list List all appropriate update labels (options: --no-scan, --product-types)
-d | --download Download Only
-i | --install Install
<label> ... specific updates
-a | --all All appropriate updates
-R | --restart Automatically restart (or shut down) if required to complete installation.
-r | --recommended Only recommended updates
--os-only Only OS updates
--safari-only Only Safari updates
--stdinpass Password to authenticate as an owner. Apple Silicon only.
--user Local username to authenticate as an owner. Apple Silicon only.
--list-full-installers List the available macOS Installers
--fetch-full-installer Install the latest recommended macOS Installer
--full-installer-version The version of macOS to install. Ex: --full-installer-version 10.15
--install-rosetta Install Rosetta 2
--background Trigger a background scan and update operation
** Other Tools:
--dump-state Log the internal state of the SU daemon to /var/log/install.log
--evaluate-products Evaluate a list of product keys specified by the --products option
--history Show the install history. By default, only displays updates installed by softwareupdate.
** Options:
--no-scan Do not scan when listing or installing updates (use available updates previously scanned)
--product-types <type> Limit a scan to a particular product type only - ignoring all others

The previous implementation was depending on a fix number of version number segments. Apple has introduced one more tag for the latest CLT version 13.4, which broke the check, leading to a false warning. With this rewritten regex we have a more robust version detection.
We were rewriting dylib IDs and install names using `MachO::Tools`,
which doesn't update the state of the file in memory. This leads to
those changes being undone when we call `delete_rpath`.
We fix this by making sure the state of the file in memory always
matches the state of file on disk.
Closes#12832.
There have been a few instances I've noticed that we've been silently
installing binaries built for x86_64 on ARM. There's probably more that
I haven't found yet, so it seems useful to check this with an audit.
