Steps to reproduce

Install-Module -Name newtestmodule -Repository PSGallery -Verbose -Debug

Expected behavior

Should write verbose messaging about catalog and authenticode checks, even if they fail. Default behavior of PowerShellGet 2.2.5 is to always check both.

Actual behavior

Install-PSResource does not by default check either. There is an -AuthenticodeCheck flag but this will fail if the authenticode check fails.

One proposal is to have the PowerShellGet (compat layer) not authenticode check.
Another is to add a parameter (such as -Force) to continue installing even if authenticode check fails.

Don't add -AuthenticodeCheck in compat layer, but add authenticode validation in comat.
