The texlive eclasses where traditionally lenient when it comes to the
exit status of texmf-update and fmtutil-sys, as they would return a
non-zero exit status in certain situations, especially when bootstraping
the texlive installation, i.e., when texlive-core is installed.

With the upcoming Texlive 2023 bbump we can make this more strict,
having texlive-core use nonfatal.
