Refactor #8404: install action poor authentication failure message

With the install action, trying to SSH to a machine where public key 
authentication fails, the error message received from Fog is simply "root" with 
no indication of why the authentication failure happened.

This is most likely do to SSHing to a machine that does not have the public key 
in the authorized keys file specified by the --keyfile option to the install 
action.

Needs more information about this.

Example:

<pre>
➜  cloudpack git:(ticket/master/bigmerge_improve_actions_for_end_user) ✗ puppet 
cloudnode install ec2-107-20-22-89.compute-1.amazonaws.com --login root 
--keyfile $keyfile --installer-payload $installer_payload --installer-answers 
$installer_answers -v
notice: Waiting for SSH response ...
info: Got an SSH authentication failure (Retry 0), this may because the machine 
is booting. (Sleeping for 5 seconds)
info: Got an SSH authentication failure (Retry 1), this may because the machine 
is booting. (Sleeping for 5 seconds)
info: Got an SSH authentication failure (Retry 2), this may because the machine 
is booting. (Sleeping for 5 seconds)
err: Could not connect via SSH.  The error is: root
err: Check your authentication credentials and try again.
err: Try 'puppet help cloudnode install' for usage
</pre>
