Introduce --verbose flag to provide more visibility into what checks are doing

[bozzmedia]

Run wp doctor check command as follows:
[root@server production]# wp doctor check --all --allow-root

Check begins but never gets past 12%

Running checks 12 % [====================> ] 0:16 / 2:15[root@server production]#

Expected behavior is that it completes or returns an error message.

Ideally a fix would complete the scan, alternatively provide a verbose error message.

Thanks!

Thanks for the report, @bozzmedia !

I imagine it's processing a large body of data (files or in your database) for a specific check, and is slow to update the progress indicator.

It would be nice to have a --verbose flag that gives you more visibility into what each check is doing.

Stopping back here as I'm still encountering the same issue.

My continuing issue is I can run that test overnight, it never gets past 12%, and nothing is returned. The timer stops counting at a certain point, and then I'm back to the ssh prompt.

--verbose tag would be helpful for sure.
