Fix error handling when failing to install a deb package (sonic-net#1…

…1846)

The current error handling code for when a deb package fails to be
installed currently has a chain of commands linked together by && and
ends with `exit 1`. The assumption is that the commands would succeed,
and the last `exit 1` would end it with a non-zero return code, thus
fully failing the target and causing the build to stop because of bash's
-e flag.

However, if one of the commands prior to `exit 1` returns a non-zero
return code, then bash won't actually treat it as a terminating error.
From bash's man page:

```
-e      Exit immediately if a pipeline (which may consist of a single simple
	command), a list, or a compound command (see SHELL GRAMMAR above),
        exits with a non-zero status.  The shell does not exit if the
        command that fails is part of the  command  list  immediately
        following a while or until keyword, part of the test following the
        if or elif reserved words, part of any command executed in a && or
        || list except the command following the final && or ||, any
        command in a pipeline but the last, or if the command's return
        value is being inverted with !.  If a compound command other than a
        subshell returns a non-zero status because a command failed while
        -e was being ignored, the shell does not exit.
```

The part `part of any command executed in a && or || list except the
command following the final && or ||` says that if the failing command
is not the `exit 1` that we have at the end, then bash doesn't treat it
as an error and exit immediately. Additionally, since this is a compound
command, but isn't in a subshell (subshell are marked by `(` and `)`,
whereas `{` and `}` just tells bash to run the commands in the current
environment), bash doesn't exist. The result of this is that in the
deb-install target, if a package installation fails, it may be
infinitely stuck in that while-loop.

There are two fixes for this: change to using a subshell, or use `;`
instead of `&&`. Using a subshell would, I think, require exporting any
shell variables used in the subshell, so I chose to change the `&&` to
`;`. In addition, at the start of the subshell, `set +e` is added in,
which removes the exit-on-error handling of bash. This makes sure that
all commands are run (the output of which may help for debugging) and
that it still exits with 1, which will then fully fail the target.
