Issue script & Debug output

I'm unable to provide --debug output when az login fails, it causes the console window to hang and block you from copying the debug text out of the console

Expected behavior

  1. After az login fails, the console window shouldn't hang (i.e. I should be able to copy text in/out of the console, or run additional commands)
  2. The error message should provide more indication as to the failure. As reference, Visual Studio's error at least mentions that a service failed to start (even if it doens't mention the Web Account Management service by name) image
