[Feature] Improve verbosity of macpine instance logs to help troubleshoot failed instances

Not necessarily a macpine thing, but have encountered cases where boot loader fails without a clear error. The only way of debugging is running macpine disk image through emu itself.

I've kind of been thinking for a while that we should have -v and -vv verbosity levels. At default, maybe we only print errors but not informational messages, at level 1 we print like we currently do, and level 2 adds all the debugging output.

What are your thoughts?

That said, I haven't found any similar issues with bootloaders, but I've also only used the default alpine3.16 build.

Tagging this one to you as you have experience with the issue at hand, but obviously it's a whenever-you-have-time :)

No hard requirements at this stage, so closing as wontfix. Can revisit in the future
