autoupdater: at the end show summary or quit

When Yast/SM ends installation it quits. 

However AU ends with state as it is frozen -- nothing happens, there is no
message "update successful" / "update failed". Such interaction and feedback
should not happen, how the user can tell 
a) the installation is in progress
b) installation froze
c) installation finished

For unexperienced user this is very subtle difference (I mean, telling from
UI).

Please, either be consistent with Yast, and quit silently, or show summary.

Personally I opt for both -- meaning, show system notification (!) AND at the
same time quit, so user will be not bothered. Show active message only if the
system requires reboot.

Reproducible: Always

Apper should go back to the list of updates and show a message if you don't have more updates...
Doesn't this happen? what Apper version do you have installed?

This bug has had its resolution changed, but accidentally has been left in NEEDSINFO status. I am thus closing this bug and setting the status as RESOLVED to reflect the resolution change.
