📚 Description
Closes #579
Display test output (stdout/stderr) on failure for runtime errors, helping debug test failures without manually capturing output.
When a test fails due to a runtime error (command not found, unbound variable, permission denied, etc.), bashunit now displays the captured output in an "Output:" section.
