We can do multiple things here, we can test before install via statvfs()
if there is enough free space, but that won't help if the spacing is
filling up while installing. So we need to ensure dpkg reports a out-of-
diskspace error via e.g. the status-fd (which we are currently not using
AFAIK.

This appears to be because the disk is full. As well as making this
error cleaner and clearer, some general testing should be done around
what happens when we try to install click apps when the disk is full.
